"Cute Critters"

*** I ADDED A FEW PICS OF WHAT IS ***
IN THE GRAB BAG FOR THE GIVEAWAY
SCROLL DOWN AND TAKE A PEAK

Hello everybody!  It it's time to share some more fabulous works from the Heartstrings Design Team.  While this time around Shelley, will not be doing a challenge on her blog, but there is a possibility that she will have something for you on her facebook (you might want to sneak on over there to check it out...Heartstrings!  The theme this time around is "Cute Critters."  This will include anything animal that is cute, soft, cuddly, squishy, and furry if you will.  I decided to use this cute bear (I am loving bears lately)....look below...

...This cute, squishy, cuddly, furry little bear is a stamp from none other then our sponsor, 'My Heart Stamps for you.'  I just love these stamps, they are so much fun and whimsical.  I colored this bear with colored pencils and chalk very softly in a carmel and pink color.  I matted with pink cardstock and used a pop dot to stand out on the card.  As a background I used this pattern paper from 'Petals &Possibilities.'  I layered at the bottom with brown cardstock and a sentiment stamp from 'My Heart Stamps for You.'  The sentiment was stamped on white cardstock and I used chalk to color it a soft pink.  And viola, you have a really cute card with a cute critter on it.  Please don't forget to check out the rest of the design team, as they too have come up with some really great creations.
