I have been mostly MIA for several weeks. So after a delightful cruise and even more delightful family visit, I have a lot of catching up to do - as I am sure many of you can relate to.
The Tea Party (info is here: Forums at Splitcoaststampers) is for the big bad bears in the woods, but gruffy wanted to crash the party. He was bringing some berries and honey but ended up eating so much along the way that he just got too sleepy. You can see a bit of the forest on the charm, but his disguise is nowhere to be seen.
I used colors from the SCS color challenge - my closest equivalents of barely banana, Really rust, and going grey.
This one: http://artfulinkables.blogspot.com/ requires something to illustrate a resolution. Mine is to try to use scraps and older supplies - the bg layers all came from my "scrap" stash.

He's making me sleepy just looking at him - all full of his berries and honey and snug as a bug, no, snug as a bear in a rug. If the weather there is anything like here, he's got the right idea to be all tucked up cosy and warm. I like the sketch you've used, and the charm is perfect - looks a bit like my fern re-purposed as trees.
Shame the berries didn't make it as far as the party - I love fruit of the forest mixes .

Isn't there a saying that says, "Watch out for sleeping bears" ? I think maybe your bear did make it to the party and drank too much of Sabrina's mead. Delightful image.
