I just wanted to show you Ling Ling. She's my youngest daughter's Christmas present. Unfortunately it's not a surprise as she helped decide what Ling Ling should look like--but I wanted to make sure it was just what she wanted and she's thrilled.

Happy Holidays,
Cheryl

I really like those furry paw pads, and I guess I don't have to say it - your daughter will love Ling-Ling. bear_wub

Cheryl this is a wonderful design. I love the larger head with the slimmer body and those eyes wow they just melt your heart. I'd love a Christmas present like that, your daughter is very lucky. I also love the design of the arms and the paw pads.

big hugs

Sorry this it late Cheryl. I just found your Panda!!
I love Pandas!!! bear_wub
You have one lucky daughter!!!
Ling Ling is adorable! bear_original
These are the creations that are truly priceless!
Cathy made my daughter a bear for her graduation from high school in 07 and she put a shirt on it that had her high school name and logo and it too was priceless!
They were selling these little cheap plush bears at the market for $9.99 with these tee shirts on them with the different schools names and logos and Cathy had me get it and send her the shirt. I gave the little bear to Herbie! He loved it. bear_wub
Rebecca's graduation bear reminds me of the heart and spirit of your little bear for your daughter. bear_original
Merry Christmas!!

Love this panda Cheryl, love the design. I love the design and style of all of your bears, they are very unique and appealing, I love the alive eyes this fellow has. I think it's great that your daughter got a say in what her bear will look like. Not many kids have their own bear made to their specifications. I am sure she loves him.

Hi Cheryl,

Even if your daughter already knows what she's getting for Christmas, I am sure she is still looking forward to receiving her lovely bear "officially" bear_laugh .
Are you wrapping him up in gift paper and putting him under the tree? Anyway, she will have a great Christmas with her beautiful new bear. bear_wub

Hugs, :hug:

Hi Cheryl!

I don't know how I missed this one. I guess I don't come to the "showcase" section as often as I should. Ling Ling is adorable. I love his expression and the proportions. He looks so huggable. :)

Thanks everyone! With all of the Christmas crazies, I missed all of your wonderful comments! (See Robert, you're not the only one!). My daughter is thrilled with the panda bear. We didn't wrap LingLing up, but she had a special bow on her and for the "official" receiving of the bear we gave her the Certificate of Authenticity.
Heaps of Hugs,
Cheryl
