Stampin' In Alaska

This is my submission for Cheryl's Color Me #26 and Challenge #67 to Celebrate Dads. This is for my Brother-in-law who will be celebrating his first Father's Day. I hope he likes it! This sweet image by Cheryl called "Father's Day Bear" was colored with Kooh-I-Nor pencils and baby oil. I knew immediately that I wanted to use this for my BIL! It's so sweet.

This week I combined the Color Me Challenge on Cheryl's Blog with the "Great Outdoors" challenge over on The Sassy Cheryl's Digital Stamp Challenge Blog . Cheryl offered this sweet image called "Bearing Flowers" on her blog at a reduced price for her challenge. We simply had to color and post the image. I've combined the image with her 800 member freebie over on Paper Craft Planet. Such a perfect combination of images, I thought! The sweet Bear has been colored with Koh-I-Noor pencils, baby oil and Copic Markers. I thought he was adorable! I created puffy clouds and grass around him to make an "outdoors" scene. I sponged a scallop die cut with Memento Danube Blue to create the clouds. The grass was colored in with two shades of green Koh-I-Noor pencils and baby oil. The image was cut out with Spellbinders dies. I'm still practicing with the Easel card design. Thanks for stopping by and taking a look!
