Hello friends! I hope you had a wonderful weekend and Easter holiday! Mine was nice and restful, and today is my day off so I'm very thankful for the "down" time!
This card I have to share with you today was made for the Featured Stamper challenge at Splitcoaststampers on Sunday. TheresaCC is the Featured Stamper and I chose this card from her gallery to CASE for the challenge. This cute Watermelon Bear is a Little Lovin' stamp from the Stamp Oasis line at Rubbernecker. I was initially not interested in these stamps, but when you hear why I love them now, you will too! The turn-off for me was the thick black line around the outside of the image! Look at the Little Lovin' page on the Rubbernecker site, and you'll see what I mean. But when you look at my colored image, you don't really notice it, do you? AND you know what else? That slightly thicker outline gives you just a tiny bit more of a margin when you're blending with your Copics before the ink might start to bleed! I have several more of these stamps to share with you, so stay tuned! I'll be getting them inky soon!
And speaking of several more of these images, I have an extra Watermelon Bear to give away! Dave accidentally sent me one too many in my recent order, so I am giving the extra one away! If you'd like a chance to have your own Watermelon Bear stamp, just leave a comment here and I will draw a random winner on Tuesday evening at 9:00 p.m. EST.
Thanks for stopping by! Happy Monday!

This bear is so cute, especially the way you colored it! I have a friend who collects bears and it would be fun to do a bear card for her. Thanks for sharing!!
Tammy this bear is just so darn cute! I actually collect Boyds bears. Just an old softy for bears.I love your color combo, very nicely done as usual.
Tammy this is just darling (I don't like watermelon) but I love your sweet bear eating the watermelon.
This stamp is so adorable! I love teddy bears and this little one is such a cutie! Thanks for letting us know the pro's of using this type of stamp. It would be a perfect to practice my watercoloring:)
Ohhh! This is so cute! (and you're right - you really don't notice the line...) I love watermelon and can hardly wait until it's in season! TFS!
Tammy,
Your card is darling and so is this little bear! With the July 4th holiday sneaking up on us, he would be perfect for cards, invitations, whatever! Thanks for the chance to win this handsome guy and thanks for sharing your creations.
So cute Tammy... and as usual,love your card.
What a great image for all summer long birthday cards, invitations and thinking of you cards. How kind of you to share with one of us, watermelon is so yummy and so is that bear!
Very cute--the papers you picked are perfect and I just love the little bee.
Tammy, this is adorable! Your coloring is amazing and the papers are so yummy.
He is cute! I don't have any Rubbernecker stamps & I'd love to win him. Watermelons are fun to color.
He's just adorable, Tammy! Yes, I see what you mean about the thick line, and yes, I also agree you don't notice it once it's colored. Awesome coloring, BTW :)
Hi Tammy, sorry I missed you on your visit to Joan's Garden recently! Love this card, such a cute image! Don't often comment, but love checking back to see what you are doing!

I have always LOVED watermelon! One year I asked for a watermelon with candles instead of a cake for my birthday....I was excited to have my wish granted. Winning this stamp would be fantastic.
