Another bear

This card is for several challenges.
Just Cute Bears - Thank You
Charisma Cardz - Going round in Circles
Moving Along with the Times - Folds (Joy Fold)
Penny Black - In the Garden
Pixie Dust - Round and Round
This is the first time that I have made a Joy Fold card using a circle as the smaller element of the fold. I hope I've left enough for the hinge! It's always difficult to know how much to leave, so that it actually holds together but still keeps the circular shape.
The image is from Penny Black and the paper from Cuddly Buddly. The circular diecut strip is Cuttlebug and the image is mounted on Nesties.
I've just been watching the test match, so I think I'd better get back to card-making!
