Good Morning Everyone! I hope you had a great weekend! I actually was able to spend some time in my craftroom this weekend and this is what I came up with. This first card is for my mom. For those of you that don't know, my mom is in a rehab and has been diagnosed with lung cancer and her only option is chemo, which she has opted not to do. I wanted something that she could set on her nightstand and when she looked at it she would know that she is in our thoughts and in our hearts. It had been awhile since I did a tear bear and I thought this little panda would put a smile on her face. Aside from the panda, the rest of the card is pretty simple. I used heart and circle Nestibilities along with the Spellbinders lattice border, pierced the background on the heart and added a few tiny flowers. The sentiment is computer generated---
I had this next card done for quite a while but didn't want to post it until our good friend Bob had received it. He is a train enthusiast so I thought the digital train image would be perfect for him. You can't tell from the picture but the train is popped for dimension. The edge punch is Stampin' Up, as is the paper. The little ties were around a silverware setup where we had lunch with him and Kathi awhile back...I wonder if he recognized them---

Oh my Kelly, I LOVE the Panda card for your Mom...and my heart goes out to her and your family...I know she will love looking at it and will treausre it knowing it came from you!!
Funny, I was just on Pinterest and saw a tear bear tutorial to pin, and thought, Kelly used to make the best bears I have ever seen and wonder why you didn't make them anymore, and here is one..it is beautiful!
Loved all your other cards as well, you always do the best man cards, I struggle with that so, maybe I need to buy some manly stamps, but you have inspired me to make at least one this week!! Have a good week my friend!!
so sorry to hear about your mom, my thoughts and prayers go out to you and her. she will love this gorgoeus card, you do these bears like no other. I love them, the other cards are just as gorgeous, it's the only way you make cards, gorgeous!!!
Oh Kelly, these are each one so full of personality and life, love each one, I am sure your mom will find comfort in that precious bear, love love love what you have done with the train and the birds are great, got a great giggle from the buzzard. Hope you have a great week, hugs
MY WORD these are GORGEOUS. I've always said that you are the master of tear animals and this sweet panda is proof! I'm sure that it will bring a smile to your mom's heart. The other cards are fantastic in the usual Kelly style with so much detail but that panda has me in awe!
what cute cards. the panda is adorable.
Oi Kelly!!!
Seu cartão do panda para sua mãe é belíssimo!!! Sei que quando ela olhar vai saber que sua família está orando pela cura da sua doença e que ela nunca saíra da cabeça de cada membro da família. Os outros cartões estão super bonitos. Parabéns por tanta criatividade.
Beijos e tenha uma semana abençoada e iluminada
All of your cards are awesome, each in a different way. The Panda is incredible - I have never heard of tear bears before & will have to explore that a little bit. Your other cards are full of details to take in, but I really love the old buzzard card! Maybe I can relate to that one - ha!
So sorry to hear about your Mom, my thoughts and prayers are going out to you and your family.
Your cards are super and each one so special! Carri ~abusybee

The latest post is incredible, as usual. I love the Panda - that's the ultimate card. It looks huggable and I know you Mom will love it.
Of course you know I'm partial to the train one (and the guy it was for) but really the old buzzard is terrific. It's so colorful, yet ominous in a silly way. Love them all.

So sorry to hear about your Mom. I missed a couple of your posts and am getting caught up. I am sure that she appreciates your panda card. It is beautiful and I am sure she thinks of and remembers you are thinking of her every time she looks at it. All your cards are beautiful. You are such a thoughtful person. Please know I am praying for you.
Kelly, Bob just looked at your tear bear and asked whether it was fur. He thought it was incredible. Just thought you'd like to know. He's right. It IS the best.
