I picked up this little bear to use for Judy's color challenge. I thought of the bear when I saw rust as one of the colors. I made this card for my brother. My brother applied months ago for his dream job and they are down to two candidates and he is still awaiting their decision. I made this card for him to try and encourage him. The sentiment is an inside joke. Years ago when he was 3 and I was 7 we were on "FAMILY VACATION" It was getting late at night. We were all getting tired and my brother saw a sign for Travellodge and their trademark SleepyBear. For over an hour or so he kept singing a little song... "I wanna go... to sleepybear. I wanna go to sleepybear."
