Polar Bear greeting

I did find one more Christmas card that I haven't posted - this is Polar Hug by High Hopes.  I made this for my friend Lora & her family (she just happens to be the owner of High Hopes Rubber Stamps!) so I wanted to make something just for her, using her wonderful images.  I used some Carta Bella papers from a few seasons ago:

I added a few Stickles, that you can't see, onto the snowflake diecuts, the icicle border & the penguin's hat; used my sewing machine to zigzag over the cardstock strip, and added my favourite embellie - gumdrops, to match.  The sentiment is from Art Impressions.  I am entering this in the December High Hopes blog challenge!  This is my last post before Christmas - so to those of you who celebrate, have a Merry Christmas!  I hope to be back before the New Year with a few more posts, in between finishing up CHA projects.  

Polar Hug - High Hopes Blog Hop

The One Crazy Stamper and High Hopes Design Teams are hopping today to share all kinds of inspiration with the High Hopes holiday stamp line!  If you want to start back at the beginning, head over to the One Crazy Stamper blog to see the entire list - you should be coming here from my talented stamping friend, Cheri Bury's blog.  I'm using the sweet #SS001EZ Polar Hug stamp:

 I decided to make a little banner to decorate my card, then I added a few tiny snowflakes, some Stickles and then sprinkled some chunky glitter on top to add a little extra sparkle.  All of my supplies are listed below... and now it's on to your next stop: Carolina's blog!  Happy hopping!
