Sunsational Stamps - Polar Bear Christmas

Aloha Sunsational Stamps fans! I'm here on this awesome Tuesday with my DT project! I'll be here every Tuesday with a new one, so check back every week!

I used the stamp set Arctic Critters.  I simply inked the polar bear up with just a few Copic markers.  I punched him out, along with other white circle punches, and sponged them with some Soft Sky ink - so they look like snowballs! Paper, cardstock, inks, and sentiment stamp are all Stampin Up. Sequins are from Calypso's Cards on Etsy, and the pom pom trim is just some after Christmas stuff I got from Hallmark.

Hope you liked my project! Go here to visit the Sunsational Stamps shop!

Christmas in July Blog Hop Day 3

Rudolph the red nosed reindeer, had a very lovely blog hop!

You just joined our Christmas in July Blog Hop Day 3! Just like yesterday and the day before, you should have arrived from Jen's page.  If you just happened to be visiting me and stumbled upon the hop, please be sure to go back to Elaine's blog so you don't miss out!

I want to thank everyone that came and visited during this hop for all the wonderful comments and new followers.  I'm very grateful for my new friends!  I also had an overwhelming response to my Christmas goodie folder I posted yesterday, so I will come up with a tutorial soon.  I really am a super spaz in real life, so just warning you before you watch my video! LOL! (Makes me entertaining, though, right?!).

Anywho, 3rd project time!

I used Best Images of 2006 for this ornament, so I'm not really sure what cartridge this originally came from (wish Provocraft would've incorporated that in their "Best of" cartridges...).  It was being a pain in the butt with not cutting properly and I wasted an entire sheet of designer paper because it just kept tearing.  I finally changed my mat and got one good cut out of it.  Everything is SU! on this one except for the stamp and embossing powder. 

Ready for EVEN MORE blog candy? To win this you need to follow my blog and leave a comment on this post.  I will be choosing a winner on Monday July 25.  I'm giving away a total of 3 blog candies.  This is your 3rd chance to win blog candy on my blog!  If you'd like to win the first and second set of blog candy, leave a comment on my previous posts as well.  You can enter a total of 3 times, one for each day.

Be sure to visit & follow all the blogs to be entered for the Grand Prize: After you have stopped at all the blogs, be sure to go back to the beginning (Elaine's blog)  and leave your name in the inlinkz with Mr. Blue frogger!
