It's a very fun Sketch #690 from my teamie Karren J. today! While the possibilities are endless for that circle or any shape at all, I have a sweet PB Birthday Bundles bear that a dear friend stamped and sent to me to color - he was very happy to be the star of Karren's Sketch!
I do have a fondness for big bears... let's start with his closeup...
He must have been a very good boy to get all those presents!
I remember a bear and his little buddy BooBoo who spent a good deal
of their time swiping pic-a-nic baskets from campers - this fun
Summer Camp collection of papers from PTI just seemed perfect -
[shhh I'll be saving this one for my in-house star gazer's birthday!]
My FMS teammates may think I'm a bit early when I add my cards to the team blog post - but it allows all of the fabulous cards THEY make to be a big surprise to me on Wednesday when they go live! Let's go - I can't wait another moment!

This bear is as adorable as all your other bears, Michele! You have a knack for coloring them all beautifully. I love how you've colored all the presents and the fantastic and most appropriate paper for that stargazer!
ReplyDeleteOh, I remember those two picnic-basket-lovin' bears! And I love this one too! That starry background is so very cool!

ReplyDeleteWhat a great idea to stamp the bear on a balloon. It works so well. Love that night sky too xx
ReplyDeleteWhat a darling little scene on a balloon, no less! Such a creative take on the sketch, Michele!
ReplyDeleteClever clever girl..that balloon as your shape is inspired. Love the papers, the image and the sentiment.
ReplyDeleteYou're smarter than the average cardmaker, Michele. I mean look what a cute card you made for that special someone.
ReplyDeleteWell he is a happy camper with all those gifts! Cute as can be! And every week I vow to be like you and get my act (and card) together early…….so far….I am failing….
ReplyDeleteDefinitely pic-a-nic stealing cuteness overload! Gosh this is adorably fun and fabulous, Michele!
ReplyDeleteYour balloon toting bear is adorable and I love that you used a balloon shape for the circle in the sketch! I think Yogi and Boo-boo would have loved this little guy too!! Sweet, sweet card my friend and your "bear" will love it!! Hugs. :0)
ReplyDeleteAdorable! Great papers and a great take on the sketch.
ReplyDeleteWhat a sweet card with that adorable bear and your lovely coloring. Great card Michele.
ReplyDeleteOMGosh, I love him so much with all the festive presents and the balloon popped out of the circle! Fabulous coloring and, of course, you know I love the paper. He's perfect for your resident star gazer. I, too, have a fondness for big bears, and this is one of my favorites!
