Hi, everyone! I’m back today with a back cover for a phone. I’ve made a couple of these in the past (here and here), and I actually use them! Last week, my niece asked me if I could make one for her phone, too. She wanted brown bears on hers, and I *knew* that the Bitty Bears from My Favorite Things would be perfect.
I stamped the bears randomly across a piece of X-Press It blending card using Extreme Black ink from My Favorite Things. It’s a great all around ink that you can use for both watercolor and alcohol markers. I colored the bears and realized I needed some colors for the accessories. I didn’t want to mess up, so I called my niece. She didn’t hesitate for even a fraction of a second, she wanted red, blue and purple. I wish I could make decisions that quickly. She actually colored one of the cupcakes herself. I wasn’t done when it was time to head to dinner at my parents’, so I brought the markers and a few other bits with me so I could finish it there.
I think it looks kind of cool with the silicone cover on the back, all glittered up. 10 year olds like glitter, I suppose.
Given how small these bears are, it’s a wonder I was able to cram this many colors into them.

I recently purchased a new glass film set for my phone. The set comes with a front film and a back film. I got a crack in my previous front film and needed to replace it, thus the new set. The old back film is still perfectly fine, so I don’t have the need to replace that (at least not yet). I realized that the new back film was perfect to use as a template for whatever design I wanted. I get the nice rounded corners and the hole for the camera is in the right spot.
I’m longing for summer and warmer weather, so I decided that
I have a clear silicone back cover that I put on top, and voilà – my phone is suddenly one of a kind. I guess I should get that front film on there. Even though I bought the new set a few weeks ago, both pieces are still in the packaging. There’s not exactly much protection on my phone when they’re not attached, I need to get to it!
