Construction Bear Birthday Card & Tags

This weekend was my nephew's 2nd birthday.  The theme centered around construction vehicles and trucks.  My sister and brother in law did an awesome job with all of the decorations and games.  I made some tags for the favors for the little kids.  To fit with the theme, I made a construction bear holding a stop sign.  I had to recall some sets from retirement to make this one.  The bear is one of my favorites from the retired set Under the Stars.  The hat is from the Family Business retired set.  I stamped it on daffodil delight and cut it out.  It fit perfectly on the bear's head.  The stop sign is a hexagon from the Hexagon Hive Thinlits Die.  I used a toothpick for the stick.  The words are handwritten using the white gel pen.  We wrote each child's name on the tag on the right side of the yellow bar.  She attached them to a cute fire engine thermal lunch bag filled with treats.

Then I made a matching birthday card for my nephew.  I used the Chevron border punch for the side and the words are from the retired Family Phrases set.  I miss this cute bear!  Hope you enjoyed this blast from the past.

Here are the non-retired supplies I used to make the tags and card:
