While at my sister and Brother in-laws over the weekend, I was giving my youngest son Chance (2 1/2) and his cousin Colton ( 3) a bath. Colton had a foam alphabet to use in the tub, the letters stuck to the tub when they were wet. This made me think..... I have fun foam, and I have Build-a-Bear sizzix dies. So today I gathered up my fun foam, It really is FUN!, and got out my dies. I was a little bummed to find that I did not have any brown foam in my stash...Oh well bears are white too!
I cut out my bears and then all my clothes. There is a little sleeve in with the clothes but it is such a little piece I will not let the little ones play with it.
I had to check out my work ... so off the the bathroom I went! All I need now is water, and wa-la! ( is that how you spell that???) They stick!!!
okay thanks to all who helped this spelling challenaged person ( thank goodness for spell check, too bad it's not always right!) So voila’
they sitck!! lol
I just love how this works! I know that Chance is going to have lots of fun playing with these! And even if he doesn't I know that I will!!
I don't have it pictured but to store these cute little guys and all the clothes I am using an empty stamp set box.
If you are in Florence, OR please come to my Mystery Hostess Workshop on Sept. 26th for more great Build-a-Bear ideas!
Until next time,

Basically I made the bear and then I didn't want to attach him to the card, I knew my son would want to tear it off, and that would ruin the card! So I had a great idea... I made a slip in the white layer of my card so I could slip a foot into it to hold him in place.
