The Gingersnap Creations Challenge blog is going all wintery this month, and the theme for this week is polar animals. After having pulled out my vellum to work on a Tim Holtz tag last week, I decided to keep playing with it. I stamped and embossed in white on it for this card (both the image and sentiment), added some layers and brads, inked the edges and called it done! I like how it turned out. While I had my polar animal stamps out, I made one more card and a little penguin tag, too. Here they are:
In addition to polar bears and penguins, I also really like reindeers images. Do you have a favorite polar animal? If so, come join the challenge by clicking this link. Would love to see what you do!
These are gorgeous,Rinda....I've never thought of embossing on vellum....it has a lovely effect.

very cute, with a warm but "frigid" look. polar animals is a fun winter theme and your velum is a perfect material for it.
ReplyDeleteDefinitely reindeer for me. There is something magical about them
ReplyDeleteI'm with Sian - I'm definitely all about the reindeer.
