Polar Bear Christmas

It's time for a new challenge at Whimsy Stamps! The challenge is Anything Goes with an optional twist of "Holiday". 

I chose to play along with the twist and made a Christmas card. It's never too early to start right?! I always have good intentions to get my Christmas cards done early but somehow I have yet to accomplish that. So......Christmas in July it is!  

Meet "Sheltering Love" digital stamp designed by the talented Crissy Armstrong.

After printing my stamp and colouring it with alcohol markers, it is cut out using the hand stitched nested rectangles die. The patterned paper is a mix of digital papers from the Purple Winter and Lilac Woods collections designed by Tracy Wray. They have been cut out using the hand stitched nested rectangles die and a fish tail banner die.

I love to add a little bit of bling to my cards - okay in this case alotta bling so I used some sparkly Stickles to add some fun snowflakes to the image background.  Some clear acrylic snowflakes, sparkly enamel dots and some sparkly ribbon finish off my card.
