CC1104 Bear Hug

Photo Details

Poster: Holstein

Karen is our hostess this week. She has given us colors of pecan pie, soft seafoam and petal pink. These colors gave me a total mental block. As Karen would say, "They made my lips freeze". My pecan pie is a little too much orange. I'm waiting to see what you all come up with for them. Printed digi and sentiment, painted. Add the layer of pink because petal pink was only used on the bear's face. TFL

What a great looking guy, who seems to be quite confident, Linda. Lovely coloring, as always! I wouldn't mind getting a hug from a bear like this one~

This little bear is just adorable, Linda, and you've done your usual stellar job of watercoloring. I'm happy to know that your paint mixtures don't always come out exactly the right shade. (Mine seldom do!)
