An Even Quicker Beary Christmas Card for PP656

by Joanne James3. September 2023 08:00

Today it's Sunday and time for this week's new challenge over at The Paper Players! It's my turn to host this week and I have a fun theme challenge for us to work with:

I feel like I need to start today's post with a confession! I am hosting this week - and for a variety of reasons I have been super busy with family commitments and not had a moment to craft all week! So when it came to making my card with limited time to spare, I remembered I had the cutest family of four-legged friends that would enable me to make a super-quick card - take a look:

Here's the low-down on today's card:

Yes - the Beary Christmas Memories & More Cards to the rescue! For this week's card, I used not only one of the printed cards but also a pre-printed card base with co-ordinating envelope; all I needed was to add a little ribbon loop detail and pop the card up on dimensionals and I was done. By using the pre-printed bases, this card was even quicker to pull together than last week. And isn't this cute family of polar bears just the cutest?

The Memories & More cards are perfect for crafting when time is of the essence - and this set of four legged friends is just adorable! They are making me sleepy just looking at them - so contented.

Here is the visual summary of the key products used on today's project for you to pin for easy reference:

What a great theme you picked for this week. - Animals are always fun to see.
Your card is cute. It's really fun when you can whip up a card using DP as the focus. Those Polar bears are adorable.

Joanne, nothing wrong with pulling a card together at the last minute when you have family responsibilities! However, your card, with the ribbon loop and dimensional foam really is still custom-made and I'm sure whoever receives it will appreciate it. You're reminding me that for the past couple of Christmases I've wanted to use images of polar bears and just haven't done it yet - maybe this year...
Xoxo, Fran
