You Make the World a Better Place

Over the weekend, I was inspired by many of my blogging friends' cards and the challenge blogs that inspired them.  I had a little time while the family was watching a movie last night to put this card together:
 Kobi the bear was colored with Copics last week while we were on break.  The rest of the card fell together based on the following challenges:

Fusion - 4th Anniversary Challenge                                 Inspired by All the Little Things #77
 
A wonderful sketch paired with those adorable woodland creatures - sigh!
Not only was I inspired by the bear, but the whole storybook feel of the photo.

Supplies:
Stamps:  Studio Katia - Kobi the Birthday Bear, SSS - You Matter
Dies:  SSS - You
Paper:  My Mind's Eye - Stella and Rose, Basic Grey - Hey Boy
Copics:  E21,23,25,27,31,33, 35,37,49,50,51,53,55, C2,6, 100 - Yikes!  That's a lot of colors for just one bear!
Ink:  VersaMark, DI - Evergreen Bough
Other:  Fiskars Paper Edgers - Deckle, Creative Memories Corner Punch

Thanks so much for coming over to visit!  I hope you have a wonderful day!
