Guest Designer Project for OUAT on 1 April 2024 with my twist on Brown Bear book

 Welcome to Becca's Quest for Love and Country Creativity blog!

purpose: this posting showcases my Guest Designer contribution to Once Upon A Time challenge blog that has a children's book featured each month as the theme/inspiration.

when: April 1, 2024 is the start date

what: instead of a brown bear or 1 of the other animals mentioned in the book, I decided to use a 'panda bear' as a substitution.

notes:

1. sandy beige/light kraft cardstock base = Art Skills/Crafter's Closet

2. pink, red, and white heart print paper = gift bag, bought on clearance after Valentine's Day; recycled/upcycled; originally 2 bags for $1 and marked down to 30 cents!!

3. panda bear with craft pieces = from a Valentine kit, bought on clearance (a total of 4 animals) $3 marked down to 90 cents!!!

4. blush pink with gold foil alpha letter tiles = Freckled Fawn

5. silver metallic glitter acrylic paint applied to "love" =
