Something Kinda Special!

Hello again! This is the card that I wanted to share with you yesterday and spent into the early hours trying to get online to post it - mainly because the challenge over at Teddy Bo ended at midnight last night and it was also a DT call. Luckily, I sent a pic via email to the lovely Gayle and she very kindly uploaded it to the challenge blog for me. Since I first saw one of these bears over on Edna's blog a while back, Teddy Bo and Bea have held a special place in my heart - and not just mine by all accounts - they seem to have swept through blogland and I'm not seeing them everywhere!! I would love to be on the DT and have an excuse to work with them all the time LOL!!
OK, now the title of my post is 'something kinda special' and I really hope you don't think I'm being big headed but I thought I'd try out something new when I made this card and I really was pleased with how it turned out.....................



Ingredients:
Image - Teddy Bo. coloured with prismacolour pencils blended with sansodor.
Papers - First Edition Spring Feast.
Dies - Magnolia Doohickeys - Fence, Doily Flowers, Romance Tag, Magnolia Tree, Leaves.
Punches - Flowers, MS Butterfly punch.
Others - Gem brad from Papermania, Pearls and Ribbon from stash. 

I'm also entering it into the following challenges:
So - what d'you think? I'd really love to hear from you - and thanks for visiting, I appreciate it more than you'd ever know!!! See you again soon.................xx
