Today's limited supplies challenge is to use black! I just got this cute bear so wanted to get him inky! I made his fur look textured by colouring him in with a Sepia marker and then dabbing over with the colourless blender pen and a lighter colour (Brick Beige).
Stamps (Cornish Heritage Farms:
Bear Hugs (Kim Hughes Collection)
Mirror It medium (to reverse the bear image so I could have him facing both ways)
Paper:
Epic Laid Black, Simply Smooth (Prism Papers)
Ink:
Adirondack dye ink by Ranger (Espresso)
Other:
Copic markers
Linen Thread
Nail art gems

Joanna, those bears are lovely - I thought it looked like alchohol ink, can't believe it's just markers giving that great effect. And when I mirror, you can always tell which was the mirror image - I'll have to look into your mirror medium!
