Countdown to Confetti - Bear Hugs

We are so close to tomorrow's release at Reverse Confetti, and today's feature is another adorable set from Dawn Machell called Bear Hugs, as in koala-cute bear hugs. No problem, I squealed, too. 

I decided to create a black and white photo scene using Bear Hugs in combination with the Insta-Frame Confetti Cuts. A Copic expert I am not, but I sorta like the results of my primitive coloring skills. 

I added a little background stamping to the A2 card base with the dad stamp from Tie-rific as well as a sentiment layered on the main image. To get my love message across loud and clear, I added a sliver of that sweet School Days Quick Card Panel with the tiny red heart pattern. Then, to add a little dimension and interest, I added Ranger Glossy Accents to each of their noses and the leaves on the trees.

Reverse Confetti is giving away two gift certificates, so leave a little love here and at the Reverse Confetti Facebook page for your chance to win! Thank you for your sweet comments during Countdown to Confetti, I always say it, and I always mean it - I love hearing what you think of the new products! Good luck and I'll see you tomorrow for the Reverse Confetti Blog Hop
