Oh my goodness: check out the adorable cupcakes that my wonderful DT and I are inviting you to draw inspiration from for Cupcake Inspiration Challenges #337. Those *furry* faces..the light/dark chocolate noses and ears...the sweet little eyes! I'd have a couple second thoughts about eating something with such a darling expression...but eventually, I'd cave! If the 'real' creatures were this cutie-patootie, I'd happily go into in the woods and join in a teddy bear picnic! Click on "source" beneath the image, to be taken to the site that offers step by step instructions for decorating the cupcakes. Maybe these would be a fun addition to your Thanksgiving dinner...
Okay, back to the challenge: I have two bear-themed cards today, although, I think 'snowflakes-themed' might be more appropriate. Eek! Anyway, I'm in Christmas-mode, therefore my bears had to follow suit, so...
One bear shaker...
and one additional teddy and snowflakes.
This week, we thank Crafty Sentiments for being our sponsor; they're generously offering the winner three digis of her/his choice.
Please head over to Cupcake Inspiration Challenges #337, where you'll see beary wonderful inspiration from the rest of the team. Some have used sponsor images; others, like me, used their own bears. Whatever the choices, I know you'll enjoy the visit.
Looking forward to see your bears in the gallery!
I'm taking my teddies to:

Cupcake and shaker card... that is a successful combo in my books. I like the circular shaker window. That is clever design, Carol.
