Beary Best Wishes

Sending Beary Best Wishes with some bling, using the Red Glimmer paper, now available in the Occasions Min Catalog.

Red Glimmer Paper isn't just for Valentine's day cards.  I added it to the balloons and small hearts to add some fun to this birthday card.  Every little girl likes some added sparkle, and this paper gives it to you without the mess of adding real glitter.  For the rest of the card I used Pretty in Pink cardstock for the card base, followed by a layer of Whisper White, and Real Red DSP from the Brights Paper Stack.  The bear image was stamped with Chocolate Chip ink, and I used my Real Red, Blush Blossom, and Pretty in Pink markers to fill in the image.  Don't forget that the Blush Blossom Marker is available for purchase all by itself.  It is a discontinued color for cardstock and ink pads, but Stampin' Up! kept it to be purchased as a single marker because it works great for skin tones on your stamped images.
