Today’s quick Christmas Card is made with the adorable Beary Cute Bundle.
Make sure to scroll down to see a super simple version of this card too!
This card includes some fabulous detail and texture that I think you’re going to love! You gotta love a quick Christmas card that’s easy to make and interesting too.
My sentiment is die-cut with one of the Nested Essentials Dies and it’s popped up on a few layers of scrap cardstock. My large polar bear is attached with Dimensionals. I love lots of dimension on my cards and varying the heights of my pieces. Using cardstock allows me to do that plus use some of the many scraps I have on hand!
The baby bear and tree pieces are both fussy-cut and popped up. The tree is attached with Dimensionals while the baby bear is attached with a couple of layers of MiniGlue Dots.
For even more texture and dimension I’ve dry-embossed the white background piece with the Snowflake Sky 3-D Embossing Folder and added a piece of ribbon to the bottom. The ribbon has a bit of sparkle to it so it looks a bit like ice. Perfect for a pair of polar bears in the winter right?!
The Beary Cute Stamp Set includes some adorable little stamps to “dress up” the bears including a scarf and tiny hat. I’ve stamped and fussy-cut the scarf on this polar bear for yet another element of dimension on my card. I used some rolled-up glue dots to attach the scarf giving it a tiny bit of height. Cute right?
For the inside, I’ve just stamped a few trees in the corner for some added interest.
If all this detail and fussy cutting is just a bit too much for you, here’s a simpler version for a wonderful alternative.
This version still includes some texture and dimension but it’s much easier to make!
There’s no fussy cutting or die-cutting! Plus, instead of ribbon, I’ve used a simple strip of cardstock along the bottom for the ground.
The large polar bear is stamped and punched out with the Polar Bear punch from the Beary Cute bundle. This punched bear, dry embossed background, and red gems, still provide lots of dimension and interest on this card. Plus, it’s much easier to make!
Below you’ll see my two cards side by side.
