Betsy hosts this weeks MIM at PTI with a masking challenge.I looked high and low in my stash for the "right" image that
would work for Betsy's challenge. I found very few animal
images (something PTI is lacking in their stamp designs). I
don't even have a PTI butterfly stamp. :( I finally decided to try Nichole's Warmest Wishes with the polar bear. My card seemed so plain after stamping/masking the polar bear 5 times...even with a stenciled snowflake BG and a snowdrift.
After adding a few embellishments...I liked my card better.
I printed my own sentiment from my computer onto the card.
I also did not want to use balloons or Easter eggs even tho
I have the dies/stamps. Hope everyone else has an easier time with this challenge than I did. ;)
Mist, Blueberry Sky), Copic Sketch,Stickles (crystal), misc sequins.
I love your card! Your polar bears are very appealing :)
ReplyDeleteYou'd never know you struggled with this card Susan as it is absolutely perfect! I love how you gave only one bear the sweater and your sentiment is totally perfect for this card too! Cute, CUTE card!! :0)
ReplyDeleteHi Susan! Oh yes, I think the addition of the sweater and embellies is perfectly charming. Darling card!
ReplyDeleteThis is so adorable! I would have never thought to use this cute bear but it looks great and the sentiment is perfect with it. I'm sorry you struggled but in the end you created a winning look!
ReplyDeleteYou've dressed up a bear which makes the scene pop! What a clever idea to use the bears!
ReplyDeleteLovely designed winter scene! Lovely card!
