Beary Happy Day!

Another challenge card!  Or should I say 3 cards!

Often I spend a lot of time making one card, but making three cards at once does not take that much more time… although the whole process took several days since I rarely have the chance to sit for a very long time to do something.

These cards are made for a challenge.  I knew I wanted to use this stamp set, so I started with stamping and coloring the adorable girl and her bear.  I then looked around the web for a card challenge and was inspired by Freshly Made Sketches #330 sketch challenge and decided to work on that.  I was particularly inspired by Amy O’Neill’s card design.

The girl in purple and pink uses a water brush and watercolor markers.  The girl in blue uses colored pencils and odorless mineral spirits.  I have not decided which is my preferred method of colouring (including alcohol markers) yet, so I’ll keep on experimenting. 🙂

Anyway, I’m not going to go in detail with how I made these cards…  I think it’s pretty self explanatory.  Here are some more pictures of the cards.
