My niece's birthday is Monday and I made this card for her!
I love this set, it reminds me of my grandmother. She used to make teddy bears and sold them by the garbage bag full!
The bear is stamped in black and then added color using watercolor pencils and blender pen.
I used CE on the bear's eyes and buttons, on the wagon wheels, the wagon handle, and on the balloons. Spica pen on the candle and frosting for the cake. The cake and the center balloon are up on dimensionals. The wheels are paper pieced. I forgot, until just now, to add his birthday hat! I'll do that before I send it out.
I used the tree branch EF from Cuttlebug to make my 'grass'.
Overall, just a fun little card!

Michelle.. I'm happy I "ran into you" today in the gallery.
I LOVE your adorable bear card.
First thing I noticed was this beautiful color you used for the card.
Secondly, the adorable bear pulling the wagon.
I love your embossed card bottom too.
Adorable card.

I love using CE too, the trouble is I can't stop now that I've started, I keep finding places to just splash it on thick too. So cute image, fine work with the ef. Clever my dear. TFS
