Rather Fish than Work

     This adorable, little bear from Imagine That! proves the point that any reasonable guy would rather fish than work.  To quote someone famous and silly (don't ask me who said it), "Give a man a fish and he'll eat one meal.  Teach a man to fish and he'll sit by the river and drink beer all day!"


Colored with ProMarkers
Cut with QuicKutz die
Burlap with distressed edges
Kraft CS for the card base

     Happy Crafting.  NanaConnie

Hi, Connie! Beautifully colored teddy bear enjoying his papa's day out, and quite abundantly successful as well! The texture behind looks great, too! Hoping things are improving - I know it is slow going. Sending gentle FL hugs! xx
