Hello, my crafty friends!
I'm so excited to be back here today, guest designing for Blue Knight Rubber Stamps!
I got to work with this company the last two years, and I very much enjoyed creating with their beautiful, high quality stamps. I was eager to get started with the fun stamps that the owner, Lynn Anderson sent me this month.
I was asked to use this stamp set to achieve two different looks. I decided to create brown bears and black bears. This first card was colored with Copic markers. After coloring, I used a stencil (A Colorful Life Designs), and added some 'paws' in the background, prior to ink blending the background with some tan Ink, and Ink Blending Brushes. Once the panel was finished, I adhered it to a green card base. voila!
To create this card with black bears, I colored the image with Copic markers. Then, I used a Cloud stencil (A Colorful Life Designs), some gray ink, and ink blending brushes, and stenciled the background. The sentiment is from the 11-12-0251 Building Beavers set. Aren't these bears gorgeous creatures?
Hope you like these cards, and are inspired to check out the Blue Knight Rubber Stamps Blog (link below) for more inspiration from the design team!

ReplyDeleteLove these. They certainly look completely different. I'm partial to black lately and the black bears is my fave. Nicely coloured and nice stencilling
ReplyDeleteFabulous cards, I love bears and the cards and backgrounds you created are fabulous with these images!
ReplyDeleteWonderful bear cards. They make a nice scene.
ReplyDeleteThese are super bear images. So lifelike. Sometimes it's difficult to find realistic animal images in the stamping world, so it's good to know that Blue Knight offers them. Thanks for sharing your awesome cards!
ReplyDeleteLove it! The stamp is awesome and you gave it a wonderful presentation!
