Hey y'all, happy Sunday! Looks like Joanne's Tic-Tac-Toe challenge for the Paper Players last week was a big hit, judging from the size of the gallery : ) Today we're back and Stef has a great theme for us:
Need a card for Father's Day? Know some guys with summer birthdays? Now's your chance to make a card for them : ) So I'm still thinking Yellowstone (see here and here), but I thought I'd make a card featuring the animal we were most excited to see during our trip:
A grizzly bear! (If you want to see lots of black bears, rent a cabin near Smoky Mountains National Park, we saw lots of black bears there!) The bear and the trees are stamped directly on a pattern from the Nature Walk DSP (been a while since I had used it), and the big, bold greeting from Weekend Adventures is stamped on Basic Beige and popped up on Dimensionals. I think Weekend Adventures was marketed as a scrapbooking stamp set (like I've ever had a problem using any and all stamps on my scrapbook pages) because it has a lot of large and in charge word stamps, but I've used it on a couple of cards instead. I added a few Natural Matte Dots to finish it off.
Supplies, all SU!
Stamps: Wildlife Wonder, Weekend Adventures, Outdoor Adventure
Ink: Pecan Pie, Mossy Meadow, Secret Sea
Paper: Mossy Meadow, Basic Beige, Nature Walk DSP
Accessories: Dimensionals, Natural Matte Dots

Obviously those bears were still on your mind! What a GREAT card--I love the stamping directly on the DSP! Creates such a wonderful background in such an easy way!
Wow, Christy! What a great masculine card! I LOVE it. The bold sentiment makes the perfect landing spot for this awesome bear. I love the direct stamping on the designer paper. I wish I was brave enough to do this more often, because I really like the look. Have a wonderful week!
