Somewhere about mid way through Beccy's Place's November Challenge, I sorted through my recent Christmas cards from my last retreat putting them in order to see what I needed to make for the rest of the month. These Teddy Bear cards from CC Designs were placed in the 'T' place holder and rested there until earlier this week when I realized I had several Thanksgiving Cards, plus other 't' cards to post on the challenge. So I saved these two.... and then when I looked at them together I chuckled!
Right in front of me ... one card cut in the perfect "U" shaped flap and
one card cut in the perfect 'V' shaped flap.
Like the poor fellow couldn't decide what he wanted to be!
Both of the scalloped edgers are part of the My Favorite Things, Stitched Scallop Basic Edgers. The sentiments are from Taylored Expressions, Simple Strips, Christmas set and the image is CC Designs, Berry Sweet.
It does show how different the paper and die cut with the same image can really change the look of the completed card.

I'm enjoying all these ideas for the difficult letters... "U" and "V" shaped dies is a good one! Your little bears are adorable Pam, and you did a wonderful job with the colouring, they coordinate perfectly with the paper and card.
