Artist Bear called Gansey

 Hi again, well my heart returned to my years of making  Teddy Bears, and after breaking my Wrist in 3 places I found it hard turning the cotter-pin joints. So I thought I would try and create a 9” bear. He was born last night totally hand stitched and I worked on him from Sunday. He is made from Cream Alpaca, he has black glass eyes and is wearing a hand knitted sweater ( Gansey ) as that is what jumpers were called many years ago. I think I might just create another one. Hope you enjoy seeing him too. Hugs Rita xxxxx.

 Hello my love friends and followers. hope you all well and taking care during this awful virus. It just seems to be here forever. I had a couple of birthday cards to make recently and thought you might like to see what I made. The first one was for a dear friend who was 60 and the second one was for one of my best friends. both cards were 8 x 8 . I use JND stamps from last year as they always look nice when finished, the second one made using an Elizabeth Creations die set and a sentiment from her as well. added the roses with a hand made bow just to finish it off.  off to make some Poinsettias now for Christmas cards. Speak to you soon again.  Hugs Rita xxx
