Another Christmas card - jingle belles

Making Christmas cards in February is kind of fun.  Not being under pressure to get them done is nice!  :D

The jingle belles prompt for this week is "text me."  That means use some paper or have a text on your card somewhere.  I chose to use paper with a text... Merry Christmas!  Appropriate for a Christmas card, don't you think?  

I will probably make more like this using Coke paper that I have.  My hubby collects Coke memorabilia and I am addicted to really like diet Coke, so it would be cool.  I think the Coke ads with the bear are so cute! 



What I used:
~Tan cardstock cut at 8 1/2" x 5 1/2" for card
~black linen texture cardstock
~'Merry Christmas' paper from DCWV Christmas holiday stack
~polar bear from Joys of the Season cut at 2 1/2" and shadowed - *Edit-  I obviously forgot to add the shadow!! Grr!
~scarf cut from DCWV glitter mat stack
~glitter glue to add some sparkle to the stars
~ribbon from my stash

Thanks for looking!!!

Love the idea of the coke-themed holiday card ... you're right, that bear is perfect ... but he also looks darn cute with that fabulous Merry Christmas paper ... so glad you're joining us on our jingle belles journey.
