Gingerbread dressed Tear Bear Embellishment

Happy Christmas Eve! Wow! Santa will be coming through here in a few hours. I was totally busy with Christmas festivities. When Melissa from Kadoodle Bug Designs released this as a FREEBIE! Wow, isn't that holiday cheer. Download the FREE svg here,

Cutie Katoodle Gingerbread Bear

Yes! Isn't it the cutest!?! Wow!

I couldn't wait! I just couldn't, I wrapped Christmas presents quick and was right back on Cricut Design Space cutting this svg file out with my Cricut Explore. 

I used mulberry paper to make this tear bear furry.

I used more of the super sweet Sugar Plum collection from Doodle Bug Design, as well as some cute sprinkles from the same collection.

I added some Diamond Stickles to all of the icing spots on my ginger mulberry bear. Look close for some reason the camera doesn't capture all of the details well.

I have this available for sale here on Etsy!

Sweet Winter Tear Bear Embellishment

 

Today, I'm sharing a Tear Bear Christmas Card using a super cute new file from Kadoodle Bug Designs.

 

I made my own pattern by uploading the file to Cricut Design Space and cutting it out with my Cricut Explore.

 

The background it paper by Doodlebug Design. I also used some glitter cardstock.

 

I made my tear bear out of thick mulberry paper. I traced each piece of my pattern onto the back of it. I then wet the outlines with a water brush. And then I tore out each piece.

 

I used Fabri Tac to assemble my pieces into layers and then I chalked each piece with Charcoal Chalk by Colorbox.

 

I took a wire brush to all of the pieces turned upside down. I then assembled this bear embellishment. I used a white gelly roll and a black micron .05 to add more details.

 

I took a soft brush to the bear and attached the tear bear to my card.

Tear Bear Turkey Thanksgiving Card

Hello! Tonight, I'm sharing a Thanksgiving card. I wanted to share it earlier, but I ran short on time. Life got in the way of my crafty self. :)

The super cute turkey is from the "Thanksgiving Turkeys" file from Kadoodle Bug Designs. I uploaded it to Cricut Design Space and cut out the pattern for my tear bear turkery with my Cricut Explore 

I used Doodlebug Design cardstock for my tail feathers and card base. This is a coordinating paper from the "Friendly Forrest" collection.

I used gel pens and Colorbox chalk to add details. 

This is my Facebook Fanpage weekly giveaway. A new giveaway begins every Tear Tuesday and another winner is announced.

Pumpkin Tear Bear Card

I made the card base in Cricut Design Space and cut it out with my Cricut Explore. It was super easy. 

I took a square from basic shapes and made it 4x4.5, I then copied and pasted, so I'd have another identical square. I overlapped them a little and welded to make it all one large rectangle. I then brought in a score line, also from basic shapes. Added it in the center and pressed attatched and then cut. I used Recollections craft cardstock for my base.

I then made a 4x4.5 square and a small 1 1/2 x4 rectangle. I cut these out with two different patterned cardstock papers from Doodlebug Design. 

I then used Basic Cricut Fonts and made my title in Design Space. I used my black cricut pen in my Cricut Explore pen holder and then cut it out.

I chalked all of this with Colorbox Chalk in Burnt Sienna. And then I glued it all down to my base saving room for my pumpkin tear bear. I added a super cute pop up sticker, also from Doodlebug Design and the perfect match for my Doodlebug Pumpkin Paper.

I found the pattern for my tear bear at Kadoodle Bug Designs. I just can get enough of the cute KBD patterns. I uploaded the pattern to Cricut Design Space and cut it out with my Cricut Explore.

I took this pattern and used a tracing tool to trace it all in the back of thick 150+gsm Orange Mulberry Paper. I then took my scissors and cut out each piece leaving about 1/4 inches around my trace marks to tare out my pieces. 

I hand tore out each piece and then flipped the pieces face down and took a wire brush to them. Making sure it was all dry I chalked all edges in Colorbox Chalk Burnt Sienna.

I then assembled my bear using Fabri Tac, which is my go to glue. I did the face and added the pumpkin face to its body. I brushed it all again with a soft brush and attatched to the card.

Thanks for your visit!
