Just Plane Cute

Afternoon all!  I just wanted to share a cute little layout I made using Designs on Cloud 9's "Plane Cute" and "Sara's Swirls" pattern sets.  Instead of card stock for the bear, I used fleece, I labeled him a tear-like bear because he is not quite a tear bear.  Cute right!

Here is a close up of the paper piecing set

and here is the complete layout.

Thanks for visiting!

Kimberly's Spring Things Anniversary Hop

If you happened here by chance, please head to Kim's for the beginning of the hop.

http://scrappingrookie.blogspot.com

Welcome to Kim's Blogaversary. She is tired of winter and thought it was time for a "spring fling"!!! All she asked from the crafters was to do something that reflects birth, which is what spring means to her in pastel and floral colors!

We have a wonderful group of sponsors that want to have "Spring" too ..... I would ask that each of you take the time to stop and visit each one of the sponsors. They have graciously donated their talent for this hop.

Creative Kut ~ $10 gift Certificate (http://www.creativekuts.com/)

Melissa Deuss KaDoddle Bug ~ $20 Gift Certifiacate (http://www.kadoodlebugdesigns.com/)

Mickie Burks Osman ~ a paper pack and some stamping goodies
Lucy Kelleher ~ Close To My Heart ~ December Stamp of the Month (http://love2createitall.blogspot.com )
Nikki Schiltz Calmes ~ Paper Piecings by Nikki ~ $25 credit to Paper Peicings by Nikki (www.paperpiecingsbyNikki.com)
Scraptastical Kreations ~ $20 Gift Certificate (http://scraptasticalkreations.com/)

There are a lot of great gardeners along the path, so this hop is two days, so, so sit back, relax and take your time browsing each garden. To be eligible for the blog candy, you must follow Kimberly’s blog.

Other bloggers may have additional requirements if they offer individual blog candy.

Here is my project!

This was a request by a customer, she wanted a white tear bear in a dress holding a banner with her daughters name to put it on the front of her daughters lavender scrapbook.

I just love the way it came out as does she.

I used the the dress and scalloped banner patterns from Designs on Cloud 9

The butterfly is from the shapes library in SCAL2

and the Tear bear I used the acrylic patter & mulberry paper from The Beary Scrap.

Pretty Springy, right?

Thanks for Visiting!

Designs on Cloud 9 DT projects

Just wanted to share these two DT projects....

Both of these are up for auction on My Ebay

I used the Warm Cider file for this cutie

and for this layout I used the Latte Bears file

the Tear Bears were made using the Acrylic Tear Bear Pattern & Mulberry paper from ...

The Beary Scrap.

DT project Raggedy Tear Bears

Listed on my Ebay

I have seen some really cute Raggedy Ann & Andy piecings lately and had to take a shot at it.

I had to get creative here!

I used different pieces out of 3 pattern sets from Designs on Cloud 9, some ribbon, eyelet lace, some embroidery thread & mulberry paper & the acrylic Tear Bear pattern from The Beary Scrap.

I have to say I LOVE the results.

The different sets I used from Designs on Cloud 9 are....

I took the legs from the Witches Brew pattern set, the cap, bow (to make his bow tie) & shoes from the Fall Crows Pattern set, the brim of his hat and overall from the Fall Fun Pattern set.

Now that was a challenge, but a fun one. Hope you like them.

Thanks for visiting!
