Wildly Sweet
I love this panda bear! He looks so relaxed and fluffy.
This stamp set was my first pick when strolling through the pages of the new Stampin’Up! 2022-23 Annual Catalog.
The Wild & Sweet Stamp set contains this snuggly bear along with a raccoon and a koala bear. You can almost image the bear just lounging in the tree and soaking up some sun. It reminds me of the days when our kids were young and we would spend hours wondering around the Minnesota Zoo.

Putting It All Together!- A walk at the Zoo…
This card takes a little time, but is well worth it. The same method can be used for all the animals in this set.
- Stamp the bear using Versamark and embossing with black embossing powder on Watercolor paper.
- Use water painters to color in the image with Early Espresso, Old Olive, Gray Granite and Mint Macaron and allow to dry.
- Die cut Large Frame from the die set and attach to the watercolor paper and trim off excess.
- Stamp greeting to basic white paper using Memento ink, trim and mat to a scrap of black cardstock.
- Attach framed bear to the card front using Stampin’ Dimensionals. Add greeting.
Hope you enjoy the serenity of this set as much as I have! Until next time!
