Today, I'm gonna share a window card showcasing Mama Elephant Cub Cuddles and Hillside Cover Creative Cuts. I love this bears stamp set so much! as I love their previously released -  Bear Hugs 



Here, I stamped the images on watercolor paper and colored it with Zig Clean Color real brush marker, for the background I blending with distress ink and for finishing touch I added my favorite sparkling clear sequins from Pretty Pink Posh.
