Christmas Kickstart #108 - Out of the Woods

I had a little fun with my card for Christmas Kickstart.  The "Out of the Woods" prompt sent me looking for forest patterned paper.  I was going to use a different bear but settled on Spellbinders Festive Friends.  That features a Polar Bear but I did something different with him.


You'd usually find black bears in the forest so that's how I cut him.  Then I got silly and decided that the bear wouldn't want to be seen so I put him in a sweater that camouflaged him.  Camouflaged until he ran into a string of Christmas lights that is.  The sentiment is from an older Ellen Hutson set called Bear Wear that was heat embossed in clear to make it show up.  

Thanks for dropping by and spending a bit of your day with me.
