Beary Christmas

Good Morning Everyone

I hope you all had a good weekend, I can't believe we are heading into the last full week of November - scary.  Ive more Christmas cards to share with you today.  This fab polar bear is a pink ink stamp, the cards are A5 in size so you can see how big he is😀

A5 size. I started with really dark blue pearl card for my base - again stash busting!  I stamped the polar bear onto white card and added colour with brusho's and shimmer with pixie powders.  While that was drying i stamped the polar bear again on white card, added a little grey colour with distress inks and cut him out, i then stamped just the hat, scarf & ice skates and coloured with wink of stella pens, cut out and decoupaged these onto the bear.  
I matted the dry background onto gold mirror card, then the base and added my bear on top.  Computer printed sentiment die cut into circles.  White gel pen used to snowy dots in the background and then glitter glue to give some snowy sparkle.  I also used a metallic gold pen for the metal bit of the skates which shines when the light catches it.

Just a close up, of course i had to add glossy accents to his nose
