Baby Bear with Balloons Z-Fold Card

I am guessing you recognize this Stampin' Up! Baby Bear card from my Z Fold Video tutorial blog post last week. I love the fun bright, cheery colors and bold polkadot patterns in this fun greeting card! I handstamped Baby Bear and his bow, and punched out the balloons from the Balloon Bouquet punch!

The great, fun, bold polkadot patterned paper is from the big Designer Series Paper Stacks on page 174 in the current Stampin' Up! catalog. I used both the Regals Collection and the 2015-2017 In Color Collection. The cardstock base is Crushed Curry, and the accent mat layer is Watermelon Wonder.

Find Baby Bear on page 61 in the new 2016 Stampin' Up! Catalog or here in my online store.

The Balloon Bouquet punch was new in the last Occasions catalog, and is also in this catalog, on page 187 or here online.

Baby Bear is a 3-step stamping set. There are 3 layers that make up the image. I stamped the darkest image in Early Espresso and both of the other lighter images with Crumb Cake ink, stamping the lightest one off on scratch paper first.

The bow is stamped in Watermelon Wonder ink, as well as the sweet greeting. You'll find this sweet greeting in the Love & Affection stamp set, pg 45, #141545.

The adorable buttons and heart are enamel Shapes from the Brights collection package #141680.
