Brrrr....It's Cold Outside!

This cute lil' polar bear is a digital stamp from Paper Fashions, Etc. I created the card to play along with the Dolce Stamps and Cards Thursday Challenge. The challenge is to create a card with some shine! One of my new favorite embellishments is creating bottle caps, which definitely has some shine to it! I also used some metallic silver pearl strands to embellish the embellishment! After printing out and cutting a panel with the polar image I embossed the panel using the Sizzix EF from the Snowflake and Flourish set. The hat on the bear is part of the digital set. I sized it to lay on the bear before printing out. The scarf is also part of the set which after printing I paper pieced it to fit the bear. The Brrrr sentiment is also part of the set. :) The ribbon and cardbase are PTI which was in a cardkit from a recent secret sister cardkit swap (thanks Patti!).
