Oh boy, have I been behind on everything lately!  bear_wacko

My swap bear finally got shipped today, woohoo!  Poor Lynn has been so patient, but I promise that her new bear is officially on its way.  While I was taking pictures of a bunch of bears today, I just had to photograph my little artist bear collection, complete with its newest addition!  The white bear with the bird on his paw is the swap bear I received from Lynn and I am in LOVE!

He told me his name is Louie, but he's such a sweetheart that I just had to call him Sweet Louie.  Here he is snuggling up with Berta's little Gingerbread bear and Laura Lynn's Briar Bunny.  I think if I want a larger artist bear collection I'll have to swap more, LOL!  Thank you again Lynn, I can only hope you like your new bear anywhere near as much as I like mine!  I've never swapped before, I must say it's nerve wracking waiting to see if your swap partner likes the bear you sent  bear_original

Bear hugs,
Kelly

:clap:  :clap: Wow!!!! :clap:  :clap:  What beautiful work she's done on Sweet Louie  bear_wub   I keep looking and more details keep popping up...gosh look at the little bear head pendant on his necklace...and those toes...and that adorable nose...

I know exactly what you mean...I'm on pins and needles waiting for my swap bear to get to Tammy...and the whole time if I'm not worried about his safe arrival, I keep wondering if she'll like him  bear_sad

Debbie, that was the reaction I had when I opened the box!  Oh look at THAT and THAT and HEY look at that!  It took me a minute to realize Lynn had made the pendant, and the bear head on it looks just like Louie!

Kelly,
I am so happy you like him . I have to say this is my first swap that I have been in and it is nerve racking and can only hope the person receiving the bear will like it.

I took Louie to work one day before I shipped him off to see what the girls thought of him ...... I almost didn't get him back!
So thought that was a good sign.  I did the Needle Felting class by Judi.  I wanted to try a bear that was my design and style and Louie developed.  I really enjoyed creating him. I have some more ideas that I can't wait to try.

Thanks for all the kind words. Doing the happy dance :dance:  :dance:. 

Hay they say good things come to those who wait!

Will post when she arrives.

Hugs Lynn :hug:
