Moving along at the Zoo we come to the Polar bear in his icy kingdom. Hopefully one day I will get back to Canada and take a trip up to Churchill to see them as they should be seen.
Again for this card I stamped and embossed the Earth Art International stamp. Coloured it in with water colour paints and fine line pens. The image was then fussy cut out and edged with a black Tombow pen. Glued to the water coloured background and die cut with a Gina Marie Die. The final touch was using Wink of Stella to give the whole picture an icy sparkle.
I have also included this card in the Alphabet Challenge - Colourful
Hope you enjoy.

Great card! Love it - it makes me think of Canada. I am in Alberta so the only place we see polar bears is at the zoo. I saw your comment on my birdhouse card - loved your list of birds. Five years ago today we flew from Christchurch to Sydney and caught a bus to Canberra. Spent 3-4 days touring Canberra then took the train up to Newcastle to stay with relatives. Then home to Canada in time for Christmas. We wished we had been able to stay in Australia for longer!

A great card, my GS would be fascinated by it as he loves animals , my husband saw Polar bears in Churchill when serving with the British Army in the 70’s.

This polar bear is Amazing with all those animals within him! I'm sure he was fun to color, I'm having fun looking at each animal. Your bg is very icy cold and such a beautiful shade of blue~

This certainly is colorful, and beautifully done. I love the extra detailing with the fine line pen and black edging - really makes the image stand out! Lovely card.
