I hope Fred P. Bear (C1409) gazing at the silvery star makes you smile and think about all the things that make Christmas special. I love bears - all shapes, sizes, and colors - and Fred P. is no exception.
Many of my old, retired bears have been donated to Patty and Lexi's toybox for fetching - but if I could find one like him, he would be pretty special. He's the perfect combination of fluffy-soft and PBS-realistic. And definitely and not a fetch-toy.
The smoother side of the Soiree White Textured Cardstock is great for holiday cards - it's a soft white and perfectly-textured for polar bears, penguins and winter scenes. The simple Christmas star is from the new Memory Box Calm and Bright Design Adhesives - it's glittered with Silver Lining. Winter Frost Glitter adhered with quick-drying Glue Gloss (also from Clearsnap) creates the illusion of snow around his paws.
Thanks Karen...Fred P. is just the coolest bear in town! Hope he's part of your stamp collection too.

This is so lovely! The composition is perfectly executed - each element adds something special but still works with everything else to make a cohesive whole. Gorgeous work.
