who has heard of or participated in the making of "tear bears"?

i'm thinking of making a pattern and selling it along with the paper i'm making (not here of course). but i'm not scrapbook savvy so i don't know if this is truely a popular thing. i've just noticed that patterns are impossible to find on the web and the book of patterns that people are crowing over is not so easy or cheap to get.

because the truth is that i am addicted to making paper. it has only been a few days and i can't get enough of it. i've gotten a few thin sheets, but mostly it is card stock thick. while i plan to use some of it to mount my photos on, there will be much left over. so i went searching for alternate uses. and while i find the tear bears cute as all get out, i'm not a real beary kind of person.
