Bear Slimline Thank You Card

Hello crafty friends ...

It's Masculine Care Monday here on my blog, and today I'm sharing a Thank You card I made to send to my brother. My husband and I had been on a 14 day quarantine after returning to Canada in March, and he made sure that we had enough groceries and kept checking on us to be sure we didn't need anything.

I had some of this pretty tree print patterned paper leftover from my Designer Challenge card (which you can see HERE), so that is what I used for the card front. As you can see, I made another Slimline card since I'm enjoying this format lately.


I used the Thank You die from Karen Burniston, cutting it twice from kraft card stock and once from white. After lightly inking the white layer, I adhered the three layers together which gave me a nice sturdy element for the top area of my card.


I've had this bear image for several years - it works so well for masculine cards! The Grass Tuft die from YNS gave him the ground to stand on, and I added three brown Nuvo Drops as an accent.


Inside, I added a small strip of the tree patterned paper, a Kraft strip and a water coloured fish. That left me lots of room to write our note on the white stitched panel.
