Keep Blooming

Bears and Sunflowers are always a winning combination.  This cute little image from Di's Digital Stamps is no exception.  She is named 'Happiness is a Sunflower Bear'.

 For this card, I sized the image to just under 4" tall, laid it out to be on the left edge of the card front and printed it on Neenah cardstock.  I used Copic markers for the coloring and then used Gina Marie Designs Label 3 for the decorative edge.  

I selected a chocolate brown card base and secured the green patterned matting to the front.  Next I secured the completed image in the center.  The sentiment is from my stash and I added a few foam squares behind it to raise it before securing to the card. 

The yellow/gold strip of paper was just an add on but I thought it gave a good contrast and helps show off the jute string  at the fold.
