12 Weeks Of Christmas: Week 5 - Blended Bearing Gifts


I love a good polar bear stamp don't you?  I was immediately drawn to the cute single stamp in the Holiday Catalogue called Bearing Gifts on page 33.  It gave me the perfect opportunity to practice using my Blendabilities.   I really enjoyed colouring this stamp in - must be the 5 year old in me!   I used the Nordic Noel DSP (also in the holiday Catalogue p.15) for a bright cheery feel.  I kept this card very simple as I wanted that beautiful bear to be the main focal point.  I used a few glimmer stars like the catalogue image, but I wanted a much brighter look so I used the Blendabilities instead of water colouring.  Oh & this post is just in time for a Casing the Catty Challenge too!




Thanks For Looking,
TRICIA
