Wellington Bear - Sugar Nellie

Happy Friday!  I never get tired of saying that... somehow 'Happy Monday' just doesn't have the same ring to it, does it?  It could have something to do with the weekend and two days off work!
Today's post is reviving a card I made way back in 2013 (seems so long ago), which I used one of the stamps from Funky Kit's Wellington Bear stamp set.  This is a great stamp set which contains four images, the large sentiment, 11 small sentiments and a wee tag stamp so it's a great value.  I do love Teddy Bears!

Be sure to pop on over and enter the Anything Goes challenge at the Sugar Bowl (remember to use a Funky Kits image) and there's always always plenty of inspiration and chatting on the Sugar Nellie Facebook Fan Page.
Thanks for stopping by and have a great week!
Copics:
Bear - W5, W3 and W0 and then W7 for the outer loose hairs.  Once it was coloured, I took a cloth dipped into blender solution and dabbed down on the image to give the fur a little texture
Footpads - E09, E07, E04 and E02
Nose - E47, E43 and E41
Supplies:
Image - Funky Kits Wellington Bear stamp set
Sentiment - Funky Kits Wellington Bear stamp set
Paper - 7 Gypsies Postal collection
Misc - Prima buttons.  I had some tiny little black flat back pearls so I added them for eyes and dotted white highlights
