Our Color Challenge Hostess this week is Jeanne and she has chosen some fun colors to work with: Balmy Blue, Fresh Freesia and Pacific Point. I saw a picture recently with black line drawings of polar bears superimposed on clouds and thought it would make a fun card. I die cut the cloud panels using SU Basic Borders and stamped these cute bears where the outline seemed to fit, adding some shading with Balmy Blue blender pen. Highlighted the clouds with more die cuts in Fresh Freesia. Sponged the sky in Pacific Point. I originally planned to make this an A2 card, but I couldn't fit all three bears and clouds in, so the card just kept growing! Added a Balmy Blue matte and mounted on a textured white base. Stamped the sentiment in Pacific Point and popped up on foam mounts. Looking forward to seeing what you see in these colors!

this is such a cute card- I love the polar bear images and the punny sentiment - I had another idea for my card originally then decided to use the polar bears

The bear with his behind exposed really caught my fancy, lol! This is an adorable design that was really thought out! Super cute, you really used your imagination on this cutie for sure!

So adorable, Faith! Sounds like you make cards like I do, with only the general idea in mind, allowing the elements to create their own space! These bears frolicking the snow are so cute!
