Teddybear Gypsy Card




I used my Gypsy to lay out a Teddybear card for the LSC at Splitcoast today.



Love how quick and easy the card came together.



I used my Gypsy and Christmas, life's a Beach, George and Wild Card cartridges to make it.



I welded a rectangle from George and the shadow from the Bear and the Beach ball to the oposite edges of the rectangle. Since the bear shape was being folded over I flipped the image, so it would be facing the correct direction. I used GP White for the card base.



After removing from the mat I scored the beach ball edge a folded them measured 5 1/4" then scored again. After I lined up the argyle EF on the fold line and embossed the Bear fold part of the Card base. Then I used a So Saffron Inkdot to rub the ink over the Argyle embossing.



I used Chocolate Chip, Creamy Caramel, and Embassy Black for assembling the bear. I put the small paw ear and nose pieces through the Xyron "X" and while still attached to the strip of paper sponged it with Close to Cocoa. After assembling the bear I cut along the leg line and under the nose with scissors to allow for the closure and the ribbon. For the beach ball I used Night of Navy for the layers..not wanting to recut the layers for the white end dot I glued the night of navy one to a piece of scrap white and then trimmed close to the edge and then adhered to the ball after assembling.


Cuttlebug struck again and scraps of Old Olive was embossed with D'vine swirl, and So Saffron used Swiss Dots for the inside back of the card.

Last of all I cut the "Hi" from the wildCard Cart and used my "X" to add adhesive and adhere to the card.
I really like how it turned out...Loving my Gypsy and Cricut!
Until Later ...Happy Stamping!
