Video: Peeking Gingerbread Bear

Hi crafty friends! Natasha Polite of Polite Creations joining you today with a video tutorial featuring the Peeking Winter Bear Fancy Die and rub-on transfers.

(If you are having trouble viewing this video, please watch HERE on YouTube.)

This holiday card creates a new character for the Peeking Winter Bear. It also utilizes rub-ons to create texture, add color, and for the sentiment. I colored the bear and added details with a white gel pen. I cut a circle using the Circle Infinity Die set to create an ornament. For the neck of the ornament, I used the hat for the bear and cut the top off.

The ornament and back panel of the card utilized one page of the Festive Paper Collage Transfers. The sentiment uses one of the Holiday Message Strips Transfers.

I adhered the ornament and bear to vellum and overlayed that onto the collaged background. White and clear sequins from the Champagne Sequins Mix add a little sparkle to the card.

I hope you enjoyed my cardmaking process and will consider stretching your dies and using rub-ons.

Happy Crafting,
