Bear Cards for Dad

By on January 21, 2021 in Paper Crafting

Hello. Today I have a different kind of post and it’s all about creating Bear Cards for Dad. You might know that my Dad passed away the day after Christmas (December 26th). I have started a project to assist in healing to create 74 bear cards for him…one for each year he has been on Earth.

If you would like to help me get this done…I would love it! Just create a bear card and post a photo on Instagram using the hashtag: #bearcardsfordad
Tag me @kariavan so I can see and smile.

Here’s my projects for today, a bear card for Dad AND an art journal page:

I have a video explaining it all, watch it here or in HD on YouTube. But warning, it is a little emotional!

I’m often asked what supplies I use to make my cards and projects, so I’ve put together a list using affiliate links when possible. If you make a purchase with these links I may receive a small commission. These help me to keep up with blog costs and continue bringing you fun projects. Thank you so much for your support!

Fabulous & Fast Bookmarks

Hello! Today I have some fun ideas using the bookmark stamps from the Hedgehog Hollow January 2021 kit! These stamps are so fun to use and turn into bookmarks…and they are just the right size.






		
		
			
			
		
	





Try these ideas:





  1. Emboss with silver or platinum on dark cardstock
  2. Emboss with GLITTER!
  3. Stamp in black and clear heat emboss
  4. Stamp in black, paint with Distress Paint, then stamp over it all with black ink (once it’s dry!)





Watch the video below or in HD on YouTube and see how I finished them all off, too using cording, ribbon, and yarn:














		
		
			
			
		
	





These bookmarks are cute alone, but add some finishing touches with ribbon, cording or yarn for a fun touch!
