For my project, I am using the adorable Business Bear. He is perfect for Father's Day or any masculine card you may be needing.
I printed him off on some X-press it cardstock before coloring him in with Copics. He is a fun image to color! I added some fur texture by using a washcloth and some blending solution to dab around on the fur. I made sure he was the first thing to color so I could do this technique without worrying about other areas getting some solution on. I also highlighted a few spots on the fur to make it stand out and I wish I did a little more. I used the new Friday Sketch Challenge for the layout using some patterned paper from Theresa Collins and popping up the colored image. I finished the card by using some old embellishments I have had to outline the stamped sentiment of 'Dad'.
