| Card for my boy - love the skating polar bear! |
Anyway, I mentioned before that I was doing a special card for each of them this Holiday season and posting it here on the blog. I did the three girls first and now I am doing my boy (that is not the order of age by the way!) So, originally I was looking for a bacon stamp set because this one loves bacon! I saw a few cute ones but they just didn't "spark" for me. Then, I really wanted to do "Horton" from Horton hears a Who because when he was little he saved up his money and bought me a Horton in baby blue (my favorite color) and I still have it on the shelf next to my bed. I actually couldn't find a stamp set for that and I am not that great with digital images so it was on to the next idea! Well, he is a hockey player and we are a hockey family so I thought that the My Favorite Things Polar Bear Pals stamp set with the polar bear skating would be cute - and that is what I went with!

I started with a Simon Says Stamp pre-cut side folding card base in the A2 size. I then used the My Favorite Things Polar Bear Pals stamp set and stamped it with Memento Tuxedo black ink and proceeded to color it in with Spectrum Noir alcohol markers in grays and blues. I also used the My Favorite Things Stepped Up Chevron die and cut pieces of Simon Says Stamp card stock in Sea Glass, Audrey Blue, and Surf Blue as well as a piece of silver mirror card stock from my Love from Lizi card kit to add some movement to the card. I used a Merry Christmas sticker also from my recent Love from Lizi card kit for the top of the card in a beautiful silver color. I then attached the little skating guy with some foam tape and added some wink of Stella for some sparkle. Finally, I added the sentiment in Tim Holtz Distress Ink in Broken China to match all of the colors. I really think it turned out to be a fun card!
