I stamped and watercoloured the image, using my Gansai Tambi paints. The set includes a metallic gold paint so I used that on the stars. I decided that since the bears were already looking up at the stars, they might as well be looking at the moon as well so used a small circle die to cut the moon out of pale gold glitter cs. I used the same glitter cs for the sentiment. The card base is a similar shade of gold shimmer cs.
I drew extra hill lines with a fine pointed black marker around the bears as the baby bear looked like he was sitting in thin air in the stamp. I added blue shading to the hills.
Here's a closer photo, hopefully showing more of the gold shine of the stars and the glitter cs of the moon:
I'm also adding it to The Merry Christmas Challenge "Anything Goes" and The Rudolph Days "Anything Goes" challenge.
