Hobbie the Bear times FOUR

Hobbie the Bear times FOUR!!!  After that last little project with him, my mind started thinking about the patchwork stuffed bears I use to make and thought how fun would he be in printed paper!!!  So you can see, I had to try a variety!!!

So it was easy to make Hobbie a cute little girl bear by adding some flowers, hearts and some lace!
#407 HOBBIE THE BEAR
#20 ROMANTIC LACE BORDER DOOHICKEY DIE
#34 WILD STRAWBERRY AND FLOWERS DOOHICKEY DIES - Little Flower
#17 SNOWFLAKE AND MISTLETOE DOOHICKEY DIES - Leaves

Isn't Hobbie the cutest peeking through the window?!!!  I used the Memory Box window die with the mini scallop die in 3 layers for the "curtain" and the wainscoting was made by making score lines with the Scor-Pal and then adding little strips of paper to the bottom and top.  The clouds I hand cut because I didn't have the new #55 ROUND TALK/THOUGHT BUBBLE DOOHICKEY DIES, but those would have worked perfectly for this.  Love when something can be used for more than one purpose.  Yup, it's now on my order!!!

#19 MINI ZIG ZAG AND SCALLOP DOOHICKEY DIES
#816 SMALL MADISON WINDOW POPPYSTAMP DIE

Now this Hobbie I added some water color shading with distress inks to give him some dimension.  The Magnolia Papers can handle a little water coloring on them, or you could use chalk too!

Then I had to make something fun and easy by using checks and stars!  This one I also did a little water color shading with distress inks.

These were kind of like potato chips....one isn't going to do it!!!!  :)

I've heard from a few people that they think Hobbie looks like a dog too, so we certainly can use that to our advantage because he is soooo cute whatever animal he/she is!!!!

Hobbie the Bear

Oh, I thought Hobbie was such a cutie!!!  He just arrived yesterday and I couldn't wait to put him on something!!!  I happened to have a little frame kit sitting out and thought he would be perfect to peek out the frame/window!  He is colored with Shinhan Touch Markers.  I added a piece of paper from the Magnolia Mini Wedding Collection pack inside the frame, added a ribbon, a few flowers, a welcome baby (SU) circle and a darling silver baby bottle charm.  Thank you Paola for the charm, yes, I used it right away......perfect timing!!!!


#407 Hobbie the Bear is available right now at Magnolia-licious, but hurry because he seems to run out of stock quickly!!!!  I can understand why, he is soooo precious!!!!

Enjoy every day and thanks so much for the comments and stopping by!!!  It is such wonderful encouragement and I so appreciate it!!!!
