Here’s a fun idea for parent/child stamping time. This is a variation on a project shown at convention. I used a small, magnetic white board and decorated it with a Build a Bear and background scene. The dry erase pen makes it the perfect place to add a “chat bubble” as well as attach note.
This board is small enough to fit in a school locker. I did this for a Mom and Me class – so much fun! We also did a BAB bookmark.
To get the arms to fit in the bookmark sleeve, I cut two shirts and cut sleeves out of one. Cut the bear’s arms off (painful, I know) and put the sleeve caps on top. Now you can make your bear’s arms move in any direction. (You may have to trim the edges off the main shirt.)
I’m cleaning out my projects folder and putting them up on my gallery and will try to post some of things as I go. Enjoy! Hugs, Fran
These are so very cute, Fran!! Your tree has such great texture, and I LOVE your bookmark!!
Very cute bears. I am getting my bear dies today and I am going to cut arms and legs to change the pose too. Where did you get the bookmark sleeves?

Your bookmark is adorable! I love how you cut the arms off (LOL) – such a neat idea! TFS.
