WT581 - We are putting toys on our cards today. My all time favorite toy is a teddy bear. They sure bring comfort to so many and I could not imagine my world without them. We hope you come join us: Playing Safe
This image is so sweet. I love giving my nieces and nephews bears and I have my grandma's bear, my DH's bear and my bear. All very important to me.
I colored this image 3 times with copics, and cut out certain parts to layer. A black pen was used to outline the parts that were cut. Then dimensionals were used to layer different parts in 3 different heights in the layering on the image. Stamped the stars and added the fun layers and the Happy Birthday sentiment.
The bottom blue and gingham were die cut with spellbinders die cut.
Thank you for looking!

Lisa, your image is so precious. What a darling card. That teddy looks so happy to be cuddled to his owner. Great coloring.

Oh my goodness, this card is wonderful on so many levels. Love the sweet images and the painstaking care you took to give depth and texture to the images. And love your story about how important teddy bears have been to you.
I'm another teddy bear lover from way back ...still have my Sweetie Bear that my mom gave me for Christmas when I was about 5 years old. She made a complete wardrobe for SB, corduroy pants had a buttonhole opening in the back for his stubby little tail to poke through. Sweetie Bear is over 55 years old, but he still looks young in my eyes, despite some missing fur.
Thanks for sharing your stories and they brought back wonderful memories. Delightful creation!
