Well here I am -"Bearly" okay could not resist! There is really no point to go into detail as to why my posts have been lacking but let's just say things have been crazy around here which is not unusual but then put a Very Sick Husband into the mix and forget about getting anything done lol! Thankfully he is now on the mend and I am thankful things should return to normal (the regular everyday chaos known as my life) by early next week.
So this is the card I made my "Peanut" for her birthday today. Wow she is "finally double digits"(her words not mine). She still loves her Build A Bears and I was lucky enough to be able to get her a Stampin' Up! one from Convention.
I will not go into total detail as to how the card was assemble, one because I am short on time and two because it is very straight forward. I will mention though that the Bear itself was cut out in Kraft Paper and I then sponged it heavily with Soft Suede ink to give her a more textured appearance. I also stamped the sentiment on a strip of Pretty In Pink then cut it out free hand in the shape of a banner.
* I will be back later to post all the supplies used but just NEEDED to atleast get something posted!

I love the way you used the ribbon slide as a belt buckle. I'm going to have to try that myself.

Well first things first, Happy Birthday "Peanut".
Jenn your Build a Bear card is so cute; definitely the best dressed bear on the block (hee hee).
Adding the heavily sponged soft suede was a great idea to make the bear look cuddley.
Well DOne!!!
