Adorable Bear & Things Card

Hi there,

I thought I would take a very short pause from the holiday cards and share a card of an adorable bear to celebrate the birth of a brand new little bundle of joy that came into our family.  Our niece gave birth on Halloween – woo-ee.  She must love having babies on holidays. Her son was born on Valentine’s Day a few years back.  Now little Jolene Priscilla has entered the world.  What a sweet occasion!

I was tempted to do the card in Halloween colors but having daughters myself, I couldn’t resist the soft and beautiful pinks of little new ones…so pink it was.
