Colour Throwdown Challenge #545 (Birthday Wishes Bear)

This is my entry for this week's Colour Throwdown Challenge #545.

I had a lot of fun making this card -  I used the Sizzix Animal Portraits die to create the bear. 

 I used the Sizzix Originals Doll die to give the bear arms/paws so he was able to hold the balloons.

I used twine to tie around each balloon then I plaited the strands together and wrapped around the teddy's paw .

I used a white gel pen to add some highlights onto the balloons.

Thanks for looking :)
