Little Bear's Friends by K. Joy - VSNMAR15MINI2 - Friday, Feb. 6 - 7 pm EST

[K. Joy]

Title: Little Bear's Friends
Hostess: K. Joy (Katlyn)
Keyword: VSNMAR15Mini2
Date: Friday, February 6
Time: 7 PM EST


When I saw the "I Treasure You" theme for this VSN, it made me think of the Nick Jr. show I grew up watching called "Little Bear". My first thought was that Little Bear went on treasure hunts - but on second thought, he also treasured his friends!

My challenge for you is to make a friendship card for one of your treasured friends using one of the Little Bear characters as your inspiration! (So you could use a bear, a cat, a duck, an owl, or even a chicken.) Virtual brownie points if you use a bear or a duck, as they were my favorite characters!

1. ALL VSN CREATIONS MUST BE UPLOADED BY 10 P.M. EST ON Saturday, February 14th.
2. You have 1 hour to complete this challenge, but you do not have to count prep time!
3. We have a special gallery for the I Treasure you VSN.
a) From the "Main Gallery" dropdown list on the first page of the uploader, choose Events and Special Collections.
b) From the Sub-gallery dropdown list, choose Virtual Stamping and Scrapbooking Nights ~ it's the last in the list.
c) From the new sub-gallery dropdown list choose I Treasure You - it's the very top of the list.
4. Please remember to put in the correct keyword VSNMAR15Mini2 when uploading your image. Copying and pasting the challenge keyword is recommended to avoid typos.
5. Please do not combine VSN challenges...but you may combine any other challenges with a VSN challenge!

It is also highly recommended that you post a link to your creation in this chat thread to be sure your layout is seen. Thank you for playing!!

This will be a challenge, for sure, as I don't have any of those animals. I think I have a rooster somewhere and will just have to use that!

cnsteele,
How about a digital image - lots online.

I think they're still working on fixing that - for now I just loaded mine into the regular gallery. It looks like you should be able to edit your photo and change it to the VSN gallery when one has been made!

He's been tucked away too long. ;)

P.S. He really shakes.

Here is my card for the Little Bear challenge.

[scootsv]

Thanks for the challenge. I do not know who "little bear' is but you said we could use a chicken and to me a 'rooster' is a chicken too! With my New Year's resolution of using up OLD stuff, I found this sheet of Susan Louise clears with nine on the sheet and I made nine of these today to use up the sheet. tfl and for all you do for us.!

I don't usually do cutesy cards, but I really enjoyed putting this one together, using my affinity for grunge cards and my silhouette! Thank you!
