Hello! Welcome to Day 2 of The Daily Marker 30 Day Coloring Challenge. Today is the FIRST day of a THREE DAY blog hop to jumpstart your creativity. If you’re new to the coloring challenge or have any questions about the coloring challenge you can refer to this post : http://www.thedailymarker.com/2016/10/coloring-challenge-bring-it-on/
I colored this adorable polar bear for Day 1 of the challenge. Let's take a look and then get into the details.
I used the polar bear from the Cool Day stamp set from My Favorite Things and gave him some color with Copics. I did some quick Distress Ink blending in Milled Lavender, Shaded Lilac, Salty Ocean, and Chipped Sapphire and white heat embossed the snowflakes from the Snowflake Flurry stamp set from MFT. I die cut the ink blended panel using the Cross Stitch Rectangle dies from MFT, added foam tape behind and panel and set it aside. I stamped more snowflakes onto the card base in Soft Lilac and Sea Glass inks from Altenew. I adhered the ink blended panel to the card base and added the beautiful Christmas Blessings sentiment from Simon Says Stamp.

ReplyDeleteWhat a lovely card!
ReplyDeleteNice card.
ReplyDeleteAdorable card such a friendly bear.
ReplyDeleteI really like your background you created. The texturing on the scarf is very nice! Did you die cut Christmas blessings and then emboss it with silver embossing powder it looks phenomenal?!
ReplyDeleteCute card. Love the bear and the coloring is great with the silver sentiment!
ReplyDeleteI love the sentiment in silver. A teacher in one of my preschool classrooms where I was subbing gave me roll or 2 of this shiny silver paper. It's sticky backed and you can see yourself in it. I don't know where she got it but they laid it down on the floor so the kids could pretend to ice skate. If I had a die cutter I would love to use it for a sentiment on a card like you did.
ReplyDeleteThat bear looks a little lonely. He can come to my house and I will be his friend! LOL The coloring on his scarf is so nice and I see his is a patriotic bear to boot. Go USA! LOL The snowflakes are so pretty and I like the colors you used and the fact that you did embossing. It's a great card all around. If you didn't put that sentiment on the card, that could just as easily be a winter card because there is nothing Christmas about the card really. Snow happens in the winter and where I live in CT snow happens (about an inch) a week or 2 ago and it's not winter yet.
One of my favorite MFT sets, such a cute card!
ReplyDeleteSo super sweet card :)
ReplyDeleteVery cute. I like the way you colored the scarf and hat.
ReplyDeleteAwwwww, you can't get much cuter than that sweet polar bear with the knitted scarf and hat!
ReplyDeleteI love how you treated the white sections of the scarf and the fab ice!!
ReplyDeleteAwesome coloring! I love your wintercard .. and the silver sentiment *-*
ReplyDeleteLove this scene!!!
ReplyDeleteGorgeous and cute at the same time. Well done.
