Loads of Love for Dad

 I've had the Hero Arts Little Hoot stamp set for a while now and never used it & thought it would make a cute Father's Day card.  You could also use it for a Mother's Day card, or any general Love You card for a parent/child situation, even a Hero's/Mentor card!!  I chose to use the bears image & colored both of them with Promarker's Dusty Pink & Shale colors.  The Loads of Love sentiment is from another Hero Arts stamp set. After coloring the bears I went about trying to find some papers that would match the bears color.  Not the best way to plan a card,  but I ended up finding a solid base card color that matched, and drummed up a patterned paper that I think matched just as well!  While coloring the Papa bear, I noticed that there was a flaw in the paper & the marker color was noticeably darker in that area.  Not to worry... I die cut and added the little pink heart right over top of it. It was just like magic because it was right where the Papa Bear's heart would be.  I also added some Wink of Stella marker over the pink heart to make it shimmer.  Really love how it turned out!!
