Kobi says ‘Congratulations’ with Kaja

Hi there,

It’s Kaja from Kajcyika crafts and today I will show you a cute card featuring the one and only Kobi the bear!

Take a look:

I knew I wanted to use Kobi on my cards for a long time, so today I finally decided to use one and show you that you can easily use stamps all over the year even though the stamp sets is mostly Valentine’s day themed. I stared making this card by stamping out a bear from the Kobi’s hugs & kisses stamp set which is as said a valentine’s day themed stamp set, but can be used any time of the year! I colored the image in using alcohol markers and this time I went with gray colored bear.

I didn’t want my bear to hold a normal bouquet, so I stamped a pot flower from Potted plants and colored it in using alcohol makrers. Then, I die cut both images and the great thing is that the Kobi’s die cuts it’s hands out as well, so you can easily put the pot in his hands!

Next I made the background for which I used the Rectengular dots cover on a white piece of paper. I didn’t want to have just a plain white backdrop, so I used Studio Katia ink blending brushes and added soft pink ink over the dotted rectangles in the center. To make sure everything connects nicely, I also added the same ink over the actual card base to get a soft pink edge.

Then, I added a white oval from the Dotted ovals to the center of the card to ensure that my bear will be seen nicely and won’t get lost in the background.

The last think that I added was a sentiment that reads ‘Congratulations’ and can be found in the Peony trimming stamp set. I used a white card stock and black ink, so the sentiment can be read easily and has a bold look to it.

All the elements were done in no time, so the only thing left to do was to glue everything together using double sided foam tape and the liquid glue.

Thank you so much for joining me!

Kaja
