This is my card for CC760. Barbara is our hostess and she chose berry burst, lemon lime twist and balmy blue for her color trio. Dessert Option this week is a silhouette. I skipped dessert this week.
For my card I decided to make a winter themed birthday card for my hubby. His birthday is December 28th.
I used a new CottageCutz die âe" Polar Bears w/Birch Trees. I also used the latest MojoMonday #524 sketch.
The white background is embossed with the Stampin'-Up softly falling folder. For the 2 rectangles, I used balmy blue designer paper and embossed it with the Stampin'-Up woodland textures folder. I used basic gray shimmer ribbon for the 2 diagonal elements of the sketch.
The birch trees from the die set are cut in smoky slate (neutral) cardstock. On my image panel, I used a cloud stencil to stencil in some clouds and then added my 2 little polar bears on top of some sparkly snow. Finished off my card by scattering a few lemon lime sequins.
Hope you can play along with us this week. These are such pretty colors together and we can wait to see the gallery exploding in some fun colors.

Oh my goodness, those little polar bears are just too adorable! I love the way you unified the theme with the birch trees from the embossing folder and the die cuts. Your DH will love this card (I do, too!).
