Polar Bear Party

Another card from my newest favourite set 'Polar Party', this time it's the turn of the oh so cute polar bear in his hat, scarf & gloves.

I've used the lovely new 2011 -2012 In Color Pool Party, this is such a fab winter colour that it's currently out of stock! But do not fear there is more on it's way in time to finish off the Christmas cards.

The panel for the sentiment is cut from the Lots of Tags Sizzlet 4-Pack of dies, I put a bit of 2-way glue on my craft mat and let it dry so that it became a temporary adhesive. Once the glue dried I stuck the tag on top so that it wouldn't move when I lined the Stamp-a-ma-Jig up, I wanted to make sure I got the sentiment in the right place.

I've zoomed in on a corner to show you a few details, I also increased the shadow in Picassa so that the emboss lines will be a little more defined. For the panel with the polar bear stamped in the middle I used one of the 2 frames in the Designer Frames Textured impressions Embossing Set of folders. This is the rectangle frame which fits Mr Polar Bear in perfectly.

I've also put a bit of 2-way glue along the bottom and when it was still wet sprinkled on some Dazzling Diamonds for snow.

I've coloured him in with a blender pen and Real Red ink from my classic ink pad.

That's all for today...
Happy Crafting!
