I rarely have time to create with the CTMH Stamp of the month; so I am very happy that I was able to this month. I created two with the same style; but the bears are different colors. I didn't realize that black and brown bears could have have white, brown or black cubs. I did some research; which I normally do before coloring; so I can get an idea of what colors to use for my creations. I stamped the images; but didn't like the colors; so I colored them with Copics as well.
