Playing along with AAA Cards challenge "Chilled" today. Besides loving this cute Arctic Pals stamp set from Ellen Hutson I just had to use some of the paper I bought last month, Freshwater Pearls. It's so shimmery! Here's the link.
First I cut a piece of the specialty paper using my Lawn Fawn Stitched Border die, then glued a piece of blue vellum behind and trimmed the whole thing to 4.25 x 5.5. Secondly I stamped the bears in Versafine onyx, then embossed with clear powder. Using a tiny bit of distress oxide in Antique Linen and Fossilized Amber, I gave their fur a little bit of color. I fussy cut both bears (can you believe that once upon a time I had to look up the term "fussy cut?" Took me forever.) and attached them using pop-up foam dots.
The sentiment was stamped onto a piece of vellum using versamark, then embossed in white. I used a Dotliner to adhere the sentiment; doesn't show through the vellum but still holds. Lastly, I added several icy snow drops using Nuvo crystal drops in clear and robin's egg blue.
I made another, similar version, this time using a single bear and a piece of cardstock from Carta Bella. I think the tree silhouettes give it a very chilly night feeling, don't you?
Thanks for looking!
Nice take on the cue word ‘chilled’. Thank you for joining us at the AAAcard challenge
