I have a twofer for you today.
A friend subscribes to the Spellbinder's kits and brought them to craft group to share.
I had the Winter Wishes - December kit and made two cards from it
using the bear die.
It's probably supposed to be a polar bear as in the first card.
My sister loves bears so I thought I'd make one in brown too.
I used some decorative paper from the kit, tore some snowbanks and cut the scarf from
a piece of felt I'd picked up from the thrift store.
I added some Dazzling Details for sparkle along the snowbanks.
I want to join in at Rudolph Days where Mo has
a Christmas challenge each month.
It's anything goes Christmas.

Thanks for the visit and special thanks for your comments.
Enjoy!
With an avatar like mine I am bound to love bears and I am loving these two adorable cards Bonnie. Gorgeous designs, loving the torn strips for the snowy hills and their cute red scarfs x
ReplyDeletethose bears look so sweet, we have lots of brown bears in British Columbia and have on the odd occasion been known to venture into the cities. Love those dies and your cards :)
ReplyDeleteGorgeous bear cards Bonnie, thanks for joining the Christmas Kickstart challenge.
ReplyDeleteFun bear cards. Love their red scarfs and that you made one white and one brown, cute idea.
ReplyDeleteI am always amazed at how you can change the color and make things look so different. These are both great cards and I love how you added the scarf to each of them. Your bears look so friendly.
ReplyDelete2 adorable cards and what a different look for each by the color of the bear. Plus, as always, those special "Bonnie touches" like the red scarf and the b'grd paper and the torn snow drifts with sparkle.
ReplyDeleteLove both cards, Bonnie - that die cut bear really is 'delectable'! Gorgeous backgrounds too. Thanks so much for playing at The Christmas Kickstart, Jo x
ReplyDeleteYou do have some amazing dies but it's how you use them that makes your cards so special. Love the use of the designer paper for the background on these. Wonderful framing too!
ReplyDeleteLove that bear and his bright red felt scarf! Two great cards with fabulous backgrounds!
ReplyDeleteAdorable cards Bonnie! Love your sweet polar bear and the snowy winter skies in the background of both cards. That little red felt scarf is CUTE! xx
ReplyDeleteTwo absolutely adorable cards Bonnie! That bear die was the whole reason I signed up for the Spellbinders monthly kit and it's still my favorite from all the kits I've received so far! Your polar bear in the little peek a boo window is just as sweet as can be and I love your brown bear too...cute, CUTE cards!! :0)
ReplyDeleteI love both of these cards Bonnie! Make for two great makes for the Christmas card stash! That die cut bear is so cool, I think you will get lots of uses out of him. I love him in the brown as much as I like him as a polar bear. Very versatile! Hugs, Brenda
ReplyDeleteBoth cards are so sweet, Bonnie! The little red felt scarf makes the bears look so adorable! Your design variation is fantastic, as always, and I love all the little details you added.

Oh too funny, Bonnie. I just visited your vase of spring flower post, and coming here to these winter cards had me confused for a brief moment. *lol*😂. These bears are adorable. Very creative to make one polar and the other a grizzly. xx
ReplyDeleteDarling bears, Bonnie - just love them in both color combos!!
ReplyDelete...we have brown bears in our woods, so brown is OK :D
ReplyDeleteBoth are beauties, that red scarf is definitely Christmas on both lovely cards!

I love both cards, Bonnie.
ReplyDeleteI have not seen a poplar bear but certainly have seen my fill of brown and black bears...and your looks very convincing!
Thanks for taking part in the March Rudolph Days Challenge.
