Today marks the final Mojo Monday 100th anniversary sketch celebration. This MOJOMARY sketch is my very own (note that I flipped it). What an honor to be part of Julee's Mojo Maker team and celebration!
Isn't this Build-A-Bear girl sweet? She is simple and incredibly fun to put together, too. Stampin' Up! has created exclusive Build-A-Bear Dies, stamp sets and coordinating designer paper for the Holiday Mini Catalog (available Sept. 1). Be ready to say "wow!"
The new Bigz Bear Die offers the bear die cut (4 3/4" high), facial parts (I used Whisper White and Chocolate Chip Textured) and signature Build-A-Bear heart (Pretty in Pink Textured). TIP: After cutting the bear in Creamy Caramel Textured card stock, I used card stock scraps to cut the mouth, nose, eyes and heart.- The Bigz Bear Essentials Die allowed me to add the shirt, skirt, cuffs and shoes . . . it also includes a jacket, pants and second pair of shoes for a boy counterpart (or a girl, depending on how you want to dress her 🙂
- TIP: The Pawsitively Prints Designer Series Paper offers tiny fabric-like prints, ideal for making "clothes." Pawsitively Prints colors are Pretty in Pink, Old Olive, Ballet Blue, So Saffron, Pumpkin Pie.
- I used the designer paper for her purse, shirt, shoes and the 1 1/4" squares in the background.
The purse, bow, belt and heart "buckle" are from the Beary Girl Sizzlets Die. - The interior gets a splash of pizzazz, too. The "Happy Bearthday" sentiment is from Beary Nice Wishes (available Sept. 1)
The Build-A-Bear dies and stamps are going to be hot sellers. Wait until you see the Kooky Spooky and Beary Merry outfits. Stampin' Up! has assured us that the Build-A-Bear line will be extended beyond the Holiday Mini.

How adorable!
She is SOOOO cute! Love her calico clothes! Thanks for the great challenge!
OH HOW I love what you did w/this Die SO SWEET INDEED 🙂
Your card makes me want to purchase this set! This is soooo cute! The bear turned out great in textured card stock. TFS. Love how you decorate the inside of your cards as well.
I love your sketch! Very cool! And the card is just too sweet!
Wow is right, lol! The bear is so cute! This is such a fun card and I like your sketch!
I love it. I love the design and the colors. I just might have to have this one. You put it together so nicely. Nice job.
Mary, she is so cute! My daughter loves Build-a-Bear!
Mary, Mary, Mary! I was not going to get the Build-a-Bear items. However, after seeing this delightful card, I am going to have to change my mind! Too cute, and perfect with the sketch!
I ordered the bear die but your card makes me wish that I already had it! Your sketch is perfect – looks like the bear has a quilt behind her. Fabulous work Mary!
Too cute! Great sketch…I’m going to try to play later today!
What a fun sketch … hope to play with it later today.
Love your little girl bear too.
Absolutely the sweetest 🙂
I LOVE the sketch — but the bear steals my heart! Mary, you have outdone yourself with this sweet creation!
She is just the cutest little thing. My grandaughter would love to make some of those. I love the small print paper as well because I like to paper piece instead of watercoloring and sometimes the prints are too big, this is perfect. My list is getting bigger and bigger. Thanks for your hard work that you put into these cards everyday, I don’t know how you come up with them everyday, it takes me a week to come up with one. I appreciate your time.
What an adorable card, I can’t wait to see all the Build-a-Bear stuff in the mini! Your sketch is also fabulous, I’ll have to play along later today.
I couldn’t wait to check your blog this morning and was so excited by your design and beautiful, fun, and delightful Build a Bear design. You never cease to amaze me!
