This is my take on Inspiration Challenge 56. I took a look at all of my stamps and saw this bear sitting in a chair reading. She looked rather relaxed...and, well, there you have it.
I did have to reverse the image of the bear/chair using Rubber Stampede's Mirror Image stamp, so that it would appear as the letter "L". The image is colored with Prismacolor Pencils and gamsol (MCPT). The other letters are from Karen Foster SnapStamps.
I went over the entire image with a black marker.
Thanks for such a fun challenge. I've enjoyed looking at what everyone has created.

Well, who is the clever-est of them all?! How ingenious to see a backwards "L" turn it around and use it in a word. You have boggled my mind. Love this card.

Wow that was very clever...I'd never have thought to reverse the image! I love the colors - they play into the relax theme perfectly! Love the doodle frame and brads. Thanks for playing!
