This is the card I made for the challenge.

Last Minute Manda



I made this easel card to highlight my cute snow bears from Last Minute Mandy. These snow bears are pre-coloured and there are several variations of the snow bears in the group.  

I added circles of glitter paper, a winter wonderland stamp, and a large snowflake. I also used Nuvo clear dimensional, Pentart Frost Effect Paint  and Wink of Stella to give the cards sparkle and Shine. 

Thank you for stopping by and have a creative month. Hope you will back here again soon.
