My Teddy Bears in Print!!

Feeling muuch better than yesterday, I popped in today to show you this article I have in Prims this month! My Well Loved Teddy Bears made it to the glossy pages! Some serius happy dancing going on over here ;)
Due to postal issues (now become utterly annoying!), I haven't had the pleasure of seeing this in the flesh, as of yet :((( nor Somerset Life actually, where I have some other features. But I decided to share it now anyway.

I have had several publications in the yummy Stampington magazines in the past (I feel so blessed by them and the wonderful ladies that made that possible!), but this is surely one of the most delightful ever. Not only for the gorgeous photography, that truly makes me smile as the photographer captured each bear's personality so well (and made me smile even bigger with the three cute bottoms facing the camera!), but also because I really love teddies and having my own published in such a wonderful magazine, truly makes me happy and my heart skip a beat!... Thank you Jennifer, so very much, for this beautiful, sweet feeling!

I really hope I have all of my supplies and tools back soon, and my normal routine, to make more. There's something so special, to me, in a teddy bear... even if I'm grown up (or supposed to be, LOL)!

Do you like teddy bears? Do you collect them?
Smiles to you,
Monica and Janvier, Daisy and Thomas (the Bears) enjoying their moment of glory under the spotlights x

I know people that collect Teddy Bears..I did paint false shutters for one of my daughter's rooms ..w/ bears:)

A lovely paint pattern that was very easy to follow and they looked REAL.. Wish I had kept them..

Bravo Monica.. Ils sont superbes tes nounours.

Penso che chi ama questi orsetti,sappia cogliere le belle sfumature che la vita ci offre.
Davvero complimenti,Monica!
