Gorjuss Bear Skin

Hello there!  Did you enjoy the Young Crafters Unite Our Favorite Things Blog Hop?  I was so pleased to be able to participate (click HERE for my post), and there was such a lot of talent on the hop!

I have another Gorjuss card to share with you today.  It's not my usual style of card - it's quite embellished for me!  I was working with a few different challenges for this one (see the end of this post for details), but I have to say that I love how the colours came out in my waterccolouring!  I would never have picked these colours to go together, which is why I love challenges so much!


The stamp I've used is Simply Gorjuss - Bear Skin.  Isn't it sweet?  I love how peaceful she looks.



And here are the challenges I'm entering:



Mine is watercolouring.



Materials:
Stamp sets - Simply Gorjuss - Bear Skin
Cardstock - White Cambric Linen, Sage Shadow, Kaisercraft patterned paper, watercolour paper
Inks – Versamark, Blush Blossom, Peach Parfait, So Saffron, Sage Shadow, black
Accessories - Black embossing powder, heat tool, aqua painter, Webster's Pages Bloomers trim, Antique brad, Black chalk pencil


Thanks for stopping by! :-)
