Eureka- Winter Bear

For todays card, I decided to 
use the stamp Winter Bear. 
He's a cute little guy!
Actually, all of
 Eureka's stamps 
are cute!


I used a simple design for this card.
 I wanted to really spotlight the image.



I used one of my favorite techniques -
 coloring on colored paper.

I like to use Bazzil paper as it 
has some texture to it and that
 really helps to pop the colors out.

The word stamp is from QKR Stampede,
 a sister company to Eureka

Thanks for visiting today! 
I hope you got some inspiration
 while you were here!
See you soon!

Small Harvest Basket

Hello Friends! 
Today I am showing a card I made
 with Eureka's stamp "Small Harvest Basket".
This makes a lovely fall card!

I cut a circle then stamped the image in black ink.
I then used Antique Linen Distress ink to antique the paper.
I then watercolored with Distress inks. 
I finished the image by using a fine line black pen to enhance the lines.
The brads are some off brand brad I had in my collection.
Thanks for stopping today!
Come back soon!
