Welcome To Keira’s Double-Digit Birthday Crafting Bash!
Oh, the dilemma of it all, what to get a talented gal such as Keira who is going to be 10 for her birthday!!!!! I know what, let's have a blog hop for her .....
Keira has sooo many talents and likes such as:
she will be going in the 5th grade, loves dogs and cats, loves to garden, is a competitive gymnast, but more importantly, she is the best crafting partner Lisa Woodward could have! At 9, she can use a cricut independently, and with SCAL and CCR. She likes to paper piece and scrapbook and loves making cards for everyone~and everything!!!! Hallmark may not have a card for “Sorry my Golden Retriever ate your shoe at my sleepover” but Keira sure does! Keira crafts along side Lisa, working on her own projects, and with helping Lisa with hers. Now, bear in mind that Keira is not a "kid" crafter so to speak but her skills go way beyond pipe cleaners and pom poms!
We have a talented group of crafters to help Keira celebrate her birthday and know she will be hopping along as part of her "surprise" .....
Our complete line-up is:

Don't you just love the tear bear? Have you ever made one? They are made from Thick Mulberry Paper which is a handmade paper. You actually tear the paper in the shapes that you want.
You can draw your bear for a pattern or use a coloring page too. Or you can do as I did for this one...I used things around the house. I used a cover for a baby bottle for the head, a quarter for the ears, my snail adhesive for the body, a nickel for the paws, and the inside of the handle of small scissors for the muzzle and just free-handed the arms and legs.
Once the pieces are torn (about 3 for each part) and glued together, you use a wire brush or a stiff toothbrush or a dental brush and just brush the paper til it is as fluffy as you like. You can decorate with clothes from paper or anyway you like.
The presents on the card pull open and display birthday greetings and birthday balloons!
I sent some Mulberry Paper to Keira along with some American Girl paper and other embellishments for her to try making a tear bear too! They are so fun.
If you would like to try a bear too, I have created a file of eyes and noses that you can cut by hand or with the silhouette cutter.
I also have included a file that includes a template to cut by hand and a studio file to use with the Silhouette cutter for the step card
