Today's day two of the My Favorite Things Teaser Time - today there are three sets up for previews, and I chose Fred Bear Give Comfort. I'll be honest, coloring fur is scary for me. I don't want it to look all perfectly blended, because its fur, and its messy. Right? Am I the only one that panics about this?
But every month, I see all the cute cards that my team-mates make with Mr Fred, and I love them.
So, I'm giving him a go. And intentionally splotchy colored that fur.
No lie, I've been sick since September. Honestly. I feel like someone should have been bringing me some chicken soup, and a blanket and a box (or a bunch of boxes) of kleenex.
Alas, somehow I'm always the nurse, never the patient!
I think *finally* I'm on the mend. Thank goodness!
I've put the Mini Tabs Foursome to work again today, just the perfect fit for my "Feel Better" sentiment. You'll want to just add that Die-namics set to your shopping cart next week. It's a handy one!
And I've got a little more rugged looking Fringed Flower Die-namics to share today. I'm loving the corrugated cardboard look lately, I added a bit of trim to the bottom of my main panel.
Two more sets are also being previewed today... be sure to stop by the MFT Blog for a full list of designers with previews for you today! I'll see you again tomorrow!

I LOVE the corrugated cardboard! Adorable!
I like your Fred Bear card, using the new set, it's so cute! I agree, coloring fur is a bit of a challenge. I often end up "pouncing" on the color or "stippling" it ... or a combination, I guess. Your "splotchy" looks good! Heehee! I love the kraft and printed papers, looks great! :)
Such a pretty card, JoAnne. Love your coloring and the corrugated and the tab are a wonderful idea. patnbobcuddy at gmail dot com

I DO hope you're feeling better! Nothing like going into the holidays not feeling well! I love the blues on this card, could go boy or girl!
I like your furry Fred! The cardboard is is great element...I will be using that in the future.
Fred is just too lovable! You did a fantastic job on his fur and I like the corregated scallop border. I think you should give yourself this card - feel better :)
These colors are so calming--sure to cheer anyone up!
Love the use of the corrugated cardboard with the scallop die! TFS, Betty
I love Fred Bear, he is so cute!
