Great "Pear" of Grandparents Card

I made this card for my grandparents on my dad's side for Grandparent's Day coming up later this month.  I used the Wild Card Cricut Cartridge for my card base and embossed it with the Seeing Spots Cuttlebug folder.  I then used the Serenade Cartridge for the pears and Smiley Cards for the mouths on them.  I used a white gel pen to add a little accent to them and added some google eyes and bows.  Finally, I used the Storybook Cartridge for the frame and added the sentiment: "A great "pear" of Grandparents".  The inside of the card says Happy Grandparents Day!

I am entering this into the following challenges:

    Your pear cute is so sweet! I love how you added the bow tie and ribbon to make them gender specific. Great job. :)
