This week Karen chose 4 colours - Cherry Cobbler, Daffodil Delight, Wild Wasabi & Pool Party with dessert being to use something, other than a flower, as the focal point. I inked & coloured up this cute koala stamp using copics for my focal point. Die cut using circle dies and sponged around image while c/s still in die. Embossed wasabi c/s, raised image using dimensionals and added sentiment and candy dots.
TFL!

Sue, this is adorable. Before even reading your description something about your "creature"(didn't realize he was a koala right away) reminded me of the song "Waltzing Matilda"...maybe it was the pack on his back. Then I read your description and thought "could be". Your image is wonderful and your coloring even better. You used the colors SO well and they seem so natural. GREAT job!

What an adorable card, Sue. I love the little bear and you did such a great job coloring him. The embossed bkg is perfect for this card. Great design and execution.
