This Polar Bear die set (Amy Design) was another NBUS item I was determined to use before this Christmas was over! Thank you to Darnell and NBUS Challenge #21 for giving me some much needed incentive to use the stuff I buy rather than just admiring it in its packaging!
I cut the bears from off-white card stock, distressed them with Broken China DI and created a snowy night time scene using some DP and this stitched cloud border die - I was surprised how well this die doubles as a snow bank!
Another reason I wanted to use these dies was that the prompt for this Simon Says Stamp's Wednesday Challenge is Christmas Critters.
At 52 Christmas Card Throwdown, the challenge is to use a previous 2020 challenge and I chose the September 2020 Theme Challenge which is Polar Bears/Penguins.
Use Your Stuff Challenge #412 has a Winter/Snow/Christmas Challenge
and Inkspirational Challenge #228 also has a Snow Challenge
The Sisterhood of Crafters has an Anything Christmas/Winter Goes Challenge
Last but definitely not least, I would also like to enter Pixie's Snippet Challenge #393!
Hugs and stay safe,
Genious to use the "clouds" as snowbanks, but here it's your design and night sky that make this beauty shine!
