I loved this cozy challenge from Lee. I had just received this stamp set and thought "how perfect - not only is he a hibernating animal, but he can wear a scarf!"
Like a lot of CAS cards, there are a lot more elements and steps than one would expect. The bear and scarf are colored with Copics, then die cut and popped up off the card using dimensional dots. After placing him I colored a shadow underneath.
I used the Gorgeous Grunge stamp with Versamark and the glitter for the snow falling. I love this set to simulate snow! (And look closely, just above his nose are two snowflakes from the Gnome for Christmas set.)
The sentiment is die cut and covered with the Wink of Stella to give it sparkle.
A fun card to make and yet another in my personal Christmas card challenge - which one do I send this year? (This one is easy...that's a big plus!)

Love the gingham background for this cutie pie, and it was a clever idea to color his scarf to match! Thanks for playing along with this week's CAS challenge!

Cute little bear, I really like the shading you did. Also like the sparkles, above and below the little guy, they add a fun freshness to the scene. Very nice card for the challenge!
