The cute little bear 'Chocolate Kisses" is from QKR and you can purchase him here. I have coloured him with H2O's and dry chalks. Another centre step card design and I tried making these circle pin wheels for the first time and they turned out to be nice and easy, but quite effective I think. The sentiment is a freebie from the talented Sharon - A Piece of my Heart and you can find it here. The design papers are from BasicGrey.

Loving this card! I think the bear is so cute and colored to perfection. I have dry chalks but I haven't used them in forever. Going to have to pull them out again and give them a try. Thanks so much for choosing one of my sentiments for this lovely card. I'm always so honored because you do such a great job displaying them.
