Have a 'Beary' happy Valentin's Day!

Step 1.

• Cut cardstock to size. Black 14 x14 cm, red 13.5 x13.5 cm, vellum 12.5 x12.5 cm. 
• Stamp on the velum using stazon ink. 
• You can also use white cardstock instead of vellum. 
• Choose a stamp from the set CCL-FR-STAMP165 stamp baby text EN. Daisy has chosen “lots of love”. 
• Stamp in the same pattern all over the sheet.

Step 2.

• Stick the paper layers together. 
• For some extra depth, use 1 mm foam tape between the red and black cardstock. 
• Note: stick vellum with liquid glue: with a little bit on the black letters in the corners and under the black strip. 
• The black dot is 0.5 cm high and 12.5 cm wide. 
• This is glued about 2 cm from the bottom.

Step 3.

• Ted, so called the bear from Craftlab, is made with the die set CCL-FR-CD155 Friendz die die Bear Ted. 
• The parts you need for the sitting bear can be seen in the photo. 
• Ted is designed to take multiple poses, and can also be turned into a panda bear. 
• So there are more pieces in the die set than necessary for 1 kind of bear. It is very convenient to use the Studiolight paper pad Naturals SL-ES-PP06.

Step 4.

• Glue Ted the bear together as you can see in the photo.
• Leave the arms off for a while. We are going to give Ted something very nice in his arms... 
  You can glue the eyes with the mini dots at the dies.
  Tip from Daisy: it is more fun to use a white fineliner and draw the white in the eyes.

Step 5. 

• Next, make the bouquet with roses. 
• This one fits right in Ted's hands, how romantic don't you think? 
• For the bouquet with roses, use the die set SSL-ES-CD113 Matchbox Love. 
• On the picture you can see exactly which parts were used for the bouquet. 
• The roses are die-cut from green and red cardstock. 
• Cut off the stems of the red roses, and stick the bud of the rose on the green rose. 
• Make the whole into a beautiful flower bouquet. 
  On the picture you see a big heart. This one is made from a bone from Ted, so nice how you can see and use multiple things in one shape!

Step 6.

• Stick the bouquet with roses on Ted's body and then stick the arms around it.
• Stick the bear on your card and add the hearts.
  This card is completely in Valentine's theme and ready to send someone lots of love. But..... you can also do that all year round!
  Thanks to Daisy, have fun!
