Pumpkin & Pickle Bears Oct 20, 2006

I've just had a phone call from Claire Carter from Teddy Bear Club International/Teddy Bear Times to tell me that my bear Sebastian & Tinker: 'A Teddy Makes Life Bearable' has made it into the finals of the British Bear Artist Awards.......I'm so happy I could cry!!!!!

There were supposed to be 6 finalists in each category but she said they have been ruthless this year and only picked 3 or 4 for each category. They are doing a feature on the finalists and she wanted to know if I wanted an advertisment put into the magazine........My gosh, I really feel like I'm getting somewhere in the bear world.....I'm on cloud 9!!!!

For those of you who missed my post regarding this below is my entry....
