Bears Picnic

I can't believe it is almost a week since I last blogged-but I am here to share a card made with a House Mouse image which was a gift from MIA-thank you Mia!!!
I coloured the image with promarkers and cut out with a Gummiapan Die-cloud dies from Your Next Stamp.The spotty paper is from an Art By Marlene pad and the stamped and stencilled strip was left over from another project,numbers were cut with a die I have had a long time and no idea of the make could have been a craft mag freebie.Stencils from Creative Expressions and That Crafty.

So very cute Carol, I love a good teddy Bears picnic, we have a real one here every Summer and all the children from all over bring their Bears and have a family picnic with games and rides and stuff like that, ever since my kids were small and before that..great stencils and papers and thanks for the memory....

CaroleAnn said...

Too darn cute!!! I love the bears expressions and since I have problems here with the squirrels helping themselves to all the food that hubby puts out for the birds, I am not surprised to see one joining these adorable bears. Love your coloring of them too. So clever with the background color, and numbers and loving the die used to frame your bears on a picnic!!! Hugs

Those bears are the cutest and just love all the detail the images have, especially all their fluffy fur. Your colouring is fabulous and the die you used to add the 'rough edge' around the picture is uber cool. Beautiful colour scheme too. So very glad you shared this with us at TIME OUT!
