Inspiration post with Sylvia for the month February

Hi everyone!

Today it's my turn for some inspiration views on the Bearly Mine Papers.

I just love all the papers, it's always a struggle to find the perfect match..

...  it's because all the papers ARE  all gorgeous...so it's hard to choose!

For this card I decided to take the papers from:

Simply Dots 

Plain & Simple

I think that the papers combined together very well.

I just love the vibrant and rich colors of all the papers!

Check out all the other DT-members.

You'll see so much inspirations and all kinds of combinations of papers. 

I'll see you next time and I hope you have fun with picking up your own papers at

Inspirational Post by Kym - February 2014

It is Kym here and today it is my turn to show you an inspirational project for the Bearly Mine Inspiration and Challenge Blog.

When I consider buying papers/images I need to make sure that I can make good use out of them. A lot of seasonal papers are just that and you really can't do a lot with them at other times. What I like with Donna's papers is that she has seasonal images but then also puts in the sets more generic papers. 

For my card I have used the Bearly Mine Design set called "Love Dreams". This is a love themed set so suitable for weddings, anniversaries, Valentine's Day or whenever you want to show someone some love. As you can see from my card I have used the more generic papers in the pack for this cute little girly birthday card so this makes this set a wonderful bargain at £4.50 for 27 digital papers as they can be used all year round.

The image I have used is a Lili of the Valley (LOTV) die-cut image which I have had for a number of years now and needs to be made into a card. I have used various dies to add some shape and dimension to the card and I have used a new die that I won in some candy from the wonderful Debby (I think you might just see this often!!). I have die-cut some Tim Holtz flowers out of a book and coloured with Sandstone and Burgundy Promarkers to match the colour scheme. The card has been finished off with some washi tape, brads (for the centre of the flowers), Craftwork Cards die-cut sentiment and some gems.

I hope you have enjoyed my little inspirational post.

Inspiration by Tracey

Hi There Everyone.

My turn to give your Mojo a little bit of Inspiration today.

Today I have used papers from the "Floral Breeze" Collection

 

These papers are so lovely and soft, these are definitely one of my

favourite sets...

If you are new to digital papers, I use Word to position and size my papers,

then print them on Kodak Matte Photo Paper.

I have coloured my Magnolia Tilda with copics 

to match the papers. 

Well I hope this helps you a bit with motivation.

There will be more wonderful bits of Inspiration from

our Very Talented Team, every few days, so stay tuned.

Inspiration Post by Natascha Banning

Hello!

This is Natascha from Bearly Mine Designs here. Today is my turn to share a new project with you. 

I made a cute baby book card for a girl using four of the pinky papers from the Cherry Days Set. This is one of my favourites for lots of girly creations. Some of the embellishments are stamped and cut out. The main image is a digital Image I have colored using wather coloring pencils. The most flowers, borders and frames are cut out using my Silhouette Cameo.

Here are the images from the front, inside and back:

 Befor printing the digital papers by Bearly Mine Designs I uselly minimize the designs and print two pices on one A4 page thicker linen paper. The structure is lovely and you can use the smoller one for some embellishments.

All papers used on my project are from this lovely "Cherry Days Set" by Bearly Mine Designs.

Inspiration Post By Laney

 Good Morning Crafters I hope you all are enjoying the regular Inspiration posts from the Bearlymine Design Team, Since it's my turn today (Laney)  and Valentines Day tomorrow I thought I would keep in with the Love theme and make a Wedding Card to show you.

I have used Papers from 'The Love Dreams Collection' from Bearlymine Designs. I am a big fan of digital papers and can always find what I'm looking for in these great collections and cd's. I use Matte Photo paper to print on at least 140gsm, and on this occasion I have added a little sparkle to the digital paper ......they are so versatile and so pretty. I have also stamped and coloured my image with promarkers, then die cut using my nesties added Lace, die-cuts, flowers finishing off with a bow.

I hope you've enjoyed my little inspirational post.

Inspirational Post from Sharon

Hello.

It's Sharon from the Bearly Mine Design Team here, and today it's my turn to post some inspiration on the blog for you.

Now as you can see, I have used a very cute stamp but not every female wants cards in Pink or Lilac so the papers that I have used to go with this image are actually from the Boys Zone paper set. I thought that the brown tones in the set were just perfect to go with the fur of the dog and the shades of blue tone in beautifully to make a soft look which would suit both or a boy or a girl I think.

As you can see, I found a coordinating blue amongst my Pro Markers which I used to edge some of the brown paper, which also saved on a lot of matting and layering too!

So there we have it - the Boys Zone paper set - definitely a regular to pop out of my digital stash!

I hope you've enjoyed my little inspirational post.

Inspirational post by Laney

 Good morning  crafty friends I am sharing this card with you today so hopefully it shows how versatile Bearlymine papers are.As you can see I have used a rubber stamp coloured with my alchohol pens added die-cut butterflies and lace, finishing off with some flowers and a bow. I Have used 3 papers on this card and I have to say not many people would think to put spots, stripes and flowers together...... I would have been a bit dubious at first then my crafty side kicks in and I just go for it lol! but think its turned out fine so I hope I have inspired you to try Digital papers. 

The collections I have used are:

Floral Surprise

 Mini Dots

The Boys Zone

  all these fabulous Paper Collections

and can be used again and again how fab is that!

Inspirational Post by Kym - February 2014

Today it is my turn to show you an inspirational project for the Bearly Mine Inspiration and Challenge Blog.

For my card I decided to make a card suitable for a teenage boy/young adult as they can be so hard to make cards for.  The image I have used is from the "Edward is Immortal" set by Visible Image.

The backing papers I have used are both from the Bearly Mine Designs Steampunk Fantasy 2 set.  These are perfect for steampunk/vintage style cards but I thought also perfect for those difficult male cards.

I have coloured the image in with Graph'it pens and fussy cut around him.  It's a bit fiddly but well worth the effort.  I have made a chain pattern on the card with some real chain held together with some brads.  The card has been finished off with some X-cut die-cut cogs with black Versamagic rubbed around the edge to distress, die-cut buttons, Craftwork Cards die-cut sentiment and a little pocket watch stamp in blue Versafine and fussy cut (this pocket watch is from another set of Visible Image stamps called "Time after Time".

Make sure you check back every few days to see inspiration from the Design Team.

Today I would like to inspire you with my card using wonderful papers from Bearly Mine Designs

These are the gorgeous papers I used:

 

       

and this is what I made with them:

I do hope you like what you see..aNNie ♥
