Today I used this adorable bear from Whimsy Stamps called Teddy Best Friends by Lee Holland. There are 3 different bear stamps and some sentiments in this super CUTE set! I cut out a rectangle with the Lawn Fawn Small Stitched Rectangles die, stamped the bear in the left corner with Memento Tuxedo Black Ink, and colored him with Copics.

I cut out a second rectangle in white with the Lawn Fawn Small Stitched Rectangle Die and then used the Lawn Fawn Puffy Clouds Border Die to cut out the cloud shape. I stamped the sentiment from the Teddy Best Friends Set onto the cloud cut out, added pop dots to the back and then lined it up on the image panel. My decorative paper is from the Lawn Fawn Perfectly Plaid 6x6 Paper Pad.
