Hello crafty friends! Hero Arts and Carly Tee have done it again and added a holiday collection to the popular original Beary Sweet Collection that was released earlier this year. This collection is filled with both Christmas and Halloween items that coordinate (or can be used on their own) with the original Beary Sweet Collection. You can check out the new Beary Sweet Holiday Bundle HERE. Or you can check out the ENTIRE Beary Sweet Collection via the button below.

Also, make sure to join me HERE on Instagram for a fun Halloween hop with tons of inspiration using the Halloween portion of this collection! Leave a comment on each stop for a chance to win a $25 Hero Arts store credit.

My card today showcases the following products:

• Bear Hugs Die Set
• Bear Hugs Holiday Accessories Dies
• Candy Kebob Halloween Add-on Die Set
• Candy Kebob Christmas Add-On Die Set
• Candy Wrappers Stamp & Cut
• Spellbinders Bow & Bell Scallop Frame Etched Dies

I started my card by die cutting my large gummy bear from white card stock. I then lightly blended the edges with some Hero Arts Granite Ink to give the white a little bit of shading. I then die cut my hat, candy basket, and candy pieces from colored card stock and lightly shaded them with some darker colored inks similar to the color of the card stock I was using (i.e. for my purple card stock, I used some Wilted Violet and Black Soot Distress Inks to give some adding shading and dimension.)

For my background, I trimmed a piece of Lilac card stock to 4.25″x 5.5″ and added some strips of Lavender, Fog, Cotton Candy, and dark purple (that I had ink blended some white strips of card stock with Villainous Potion Distress Ink) with liquid adhesive. I trimmed off any overhang from my strips with a pair of scissors and added both a white scalloped rectangle (using Spellbinders Bow & Scallop Frame Etched Dies) and an ink-blended piece of white card stock (blended with Villainous Potion, Wilted Violet, and Milled Lavender Distress Inks.). Lastly, I adhered my images with 3D foam adhesive tape and my sentiment (from the Candy Wrappers Stamp & Cut) that I had embossed with Fine Detail White Embossing Powder.

Thanks for taking the time to drop by today! I hope you’ll join in on the hop and leave a comment on my Instagram post! Wishing you all a lovely day!
