A couple of the DT members at Aud Sentiments weren't able to complete their cards for the challenge so I got to play with these two fun stamps from Stitchy Bear Stamps.
I tried a new to me coloring technique for the bear. After coloring with copics like normal, I used the old rag technique to add the look of texture to his fur. I simply colored the tips of an old washcloth with my copics and then dabbed onto the bear. I am really pleased with the way he turned out. It was super simple to do.

For my second card, I thought this guy looked a little green around the gills. Just like he had partied too hard the night before for his birthday. So I chose a funky green color. I will probably put together a hangover kit to go along with this card
