I was so excited to receive the Beary Christmas die set from Scrapbook.com and I finally spent some time using the dies to create this cute scene with the two trees and adorable polar bear decorating them. I started with stenciling my panel with the Bricks Stencil with a mix of Cloud Whip and Snowflake Pops of Color. I masked off the bottom of the panel so once the background was dry, I stamped my sentiment. I masked the bottom part of the panel again and added some Uncharted Mariner Distress Oxide and Spritz.

When that was dry, I adhered a 4x5-1/4" patterned paper panel to my card base and then popped up my stenciled and stamped panel. I die cut the polar bear out white mixed media cardstock (same as the panel) and the polar bear details and trees from the same Snow Days A2 pad as my background. I glued the trees and polar bear together then adhered them to my card with foam adhesive, except for the small tree - that was glued on with liquid adhesive.
I used some soft alcohol markers to add shadow and small details to my polar bear. I then used a black gel pen to add his little eye. To add some highlights, I used a white gel pen to add highlights around the images and sentiment. Finally, I used my Clear Shimmer glitter brush to add glitter to "Christmas" in my sentiment. I hope this card brings you a big, bear hug of a smile to your face today!
