Papa Bear – Best Dad Ever!

Hey there! I’m so happy you’ve come to my blog to see this adorable card I made using Kinda Cute’s Papa Bear and Baby digital stamp! I think Father’s Day cards can be one of the hardest cards to make. Well, really, any masculine card is difficult in my opinion! But when I saw this digital stamp, I thought it was PERFECT for a dad! I hope you like it!

To make this card, I pulled the digital stamps into Adobe Illustrator and put the trees from the Tree Filler set behind the Bears. I printed them out on 80lb. Neenah Solar White cardstock.

Now, I’m ready to color them! I’m using my Copic markers to color in the trees. For the trunks, I’m using E23, E25, and E29. For the trees, I’m using G07, G05, G28, and G29.

For the bears, I’m using E44 (Papa only), E43, E42, E41, R20 (baby only), E50, E51, and E53. I also am using my white Gelly Roll pen for the baby’s cheeks.

I’m taking a textured towel and soaking a corner of it with Alcohol Blending Solution. Then, I’m carefully dabbing the Papa’s body with it, avoiding his face, the baby, and the trees.
