I couldn’t wait to play with the Penny Black A Bear of All Trades stamp set full of such cute images. It’s a terrific set for Father’s Day cards, and I made a Father’s Day card for my husband, who happens to be a software programmer.
I colored the bear with Primacolor colored pencils over a Copic base at the recommendation of Elizabeth Allan. I first colored the bear without the Copic underlayer, and the Copics give the image a decidedly more finished look. I also used a Prismacolor blending pencil, which is like magic!
This is the perfect stamp for the ‘Techie’ guy in our lives…such a cute card, Jean! Love your coloring technique, too!
