Old Friends and New Memories Video

Hello crafting friends- There is nothing quite like the classic warmth of childhood storybooks to bring a smile to someone’s face. Today, I’m thrilled to share a project that feels like a big, cozy hug in card form. This hand crafted friendship card features the incredibly nostalgic, Winnie the Pooh from the Silly Old Bear Suite Collection from Stampin’ Up!

For this design, I wanted a soft, vintage feel that lets these beloved characters truly shine. Check out my video below to see how easy this card comes together.

Very Vanilla Cardstock provides a soft, warm background that pairs beautifully with the rich, grounded look of the Early Espresso Two-Tone Cardstock. The Focal Point is the sweet silhouettes of everyone’s favorite bear and piglet and are beautifully framed using the Sweet Words & Labels Bundle. A few strategically placed 2026-2028 In Color Dots complete the card.
