Who can resist a teddy bear? Not I nor any little girl that I know! Beary Big Hugs is one of the new releases from the Sweet Things Collection from Belles N' Whistles illustrated by the talented Elisabeth Bell. I think they're such an adorable and versatile collection!
I colored her with copics and used some Diamond Glaze on her headband and ribbon. I fell in love with the gorgeous colors from the Honey Pie collection from Cosmo Cricket and thought they went perfectly with this sweet, soft image. I added a bit of dimension to the paper by using my textured cuttlebug folder. I tried to keep her simple and just added a hatpin, some ribbon, and Prima Flowers to the corner.
These faces are just pure joy and loved, don't you think? I know this is a bit of a change for me but I did hold back on the Stickles for this sweetie. Just a little on her top and the bear's sweet feet!
My favorite stuffed animal when I was growing up was my yellow tiger striped cat named Jenny. I still have her and she's here in Florida with me in my hope chest. I'd love to hear about what your favorite stuffed animal was while you were growing up! Let's revisit our childhood for just a bit. I hope it gives you the warm feeling that I have. If not, please take some of mine. We had a lot of love to go around.

She's a real cutie. The card looks just right - not too much glitter and not too little. My favorite doll was one that looked very similar to Pebbles from the Flintstones so I named her Pebbles.
Susan, I am in awe of your coloring skills. Lovely card!
Very cute! Love how you colored the image and the cleaner layout of the card - really showcases the image.
Wow Susan, she is beautiful, your coloring is perfection! This is just so warm and cheery!!! Beautiful card!!
She's totally lovely!
Cute card! My favorite stuffed animal was Thumper. It was the character from Bambi.
Susan, Awesome job, Again! You are so talented!
This is such a beautiful card! It also reminds me of my teddy bear, Sebastian Bach! Just soooooo squeezable! What a lovely sketch!

Amazing coloring, love this card. My favorite stuffed dog now belongs to my six year old son.
Your coloring is so soft and works perfectly with the colors you used! TFS
gorgeous cards, I think you worked perfectly with the color combo!. Gorgeous colourwork on your images as always.
Love it! Well done!
I miss a big stuffed dog I named Alfred. I have no idea where he got his name. I don't know what happened to him, either.
How adorable! I love this image and you did a beautiful job - love all the details.
Hugs,
Marsha
