This week the challenge with SUO challenges here is to create a card with a critter or animal on it.
There were so many possibilities to choose from, but I elected to use the stamp set "A Little Wild" and because these images have a "front" and "back" they are perfect for mounting onto see through tulle windows.
After adhering some Coffee Break DSP to an Early Espresso layer which was then adhered to a top fold Shimmer White card stock base, I die cut a square aperture using the stitched square framelit die. This square opening was covered by a piece of tulle using tear and tape adhesive applied close to the aperture edges on the card front.
The DSP layer was then added to the card front, after which I made Whisper White frames to add around both the inside and outside window.
The images were stamped on Whisper White, colored with watercolor pencils and a blender pen, and then die cut using the "Little Loves Framelits". The little bees were fussy cut by hand.
Tear and tape adhesive was used to adhere the front of the bear on the tulle of the card front as well as the bee hive and the flower. The extra bees were located near the hive, and one landed on the bear himself. An extra bee was placed on the inside of the card.
Open the card, and the back of the bear was adhered over the front. I colored and die cut a second flower to adhere over the front one, but for the beehive I just die cut an outline of one in Basic black card stock.
