XOXO Polar Bear

Christmas [or not] Bingo Challenges has a new challenge ready to go for you!

CBC will feature a new Bingo card for each challenge and while this isn't your typical game of BINGO, you are required to use at least three items in ONE column.

We are a "just for fun" challenge where you will have the chance to proudly display our Winner or Top Pick Badge!

My choice is the Column G: Valentine, red, free, gems, die-cuts

To create this card I used Love Hearts embossing folder by Bringing Crafts-Too you and XOXO die cut to create the background.  The polar bear is from the Polar Bear Pals stamp set by MFT, colored with Copic markers.  The gems were placed using the Imaginisce iRock tool.

So glad you stopped by and I look forward to seeing your creation!

Let it Snow

This month at Winter Wonderland our challenge theme is Let it Snow.  We don't have a sponsor for this month so this month's challenge is Just for Fun!

I have had this Tiddlyinks image for a few years, even printed it out and there it sat, waiting to be colored.  The image is called Ricky Winter Lights unfortunately, I don't see that it's available anymore however there is a girl version Winterlights Wryn.

I had intended on creating a CAS card but it looked too bare so I decided to color in some winter lights.  Not perfect but it was my first shot at it! To add some falling snow, I used an toothbrush with a bit of water and white paint.  It it a bit messy but this is one of my favorite ways to add an overall snow dusting, it adds a nice soft and serene look and for this image, I think it's perfect.  To finish it off, I used some shimmer spray.

Now it's your turn to show us your Christmas cards and for some extra inspiration, make sure you check out our Design Team's creations.
