If you know me at all, you know I absolutely LOVE Polar Bears! Whenever we go to the zoo, I could spend all of my time watching the polar bears. Seriously. If I could have one as a pet, I would.
Ok, so you get the picture, I really do love polar bears. Imagine how excited I was when I saw the Arctic Bears Bundle that Stampin’Up! has in the mini Holiday catalog! I’ve been wanting to play with this set, but with the summer weather and all the flower gardens still putting on a show, it was a bit of a disconnect to work with wintery scenes. Now that the Fall season is upon us and the temperatures are getting a little cooler, I couldn’t wait any longer!
For my video this week, I made three different cards using the Arctic Bears Bundle. I also incorporated a couple of other sets as well as used the Northern Lights technique. I made two of the cards into Christmas cards, and I made one a “Thinking of You” card. They could easily be made into winter birthday cards as well. I had a blast designing these cards and hope you like them!
