Winter Animals at Allsorts

Welcome or welcome back and Happy New Year everyone. I hope that 2026 brings Good Health and Happiness to you all. 

I am here with my first DT piece of 2026 for the brilliant Allsorts Challenge where the optional theme chosen by Helen is Winter Animals. 


I used a cute polar bear from a My Favorite Things stamp set, Polar Bear Pals. this set hasn't seen daylight for some time and I'd forgotten how useful it is for wintertime, with lots of different messages. I coloured him with Promarkers and tore strips of random blue papers for the background.

In keeping with the theme, the prize is from

 Visible Image stamps set and coordinating dies

                                              

We very much hope that you will join us .

See you soon xx

Happy New Year to you Sarah. Love the torn strips of DP, they give your background that extra wintery feel. First real snow of the year overnight but only a sugar dusting, cold and bright now. Al says your card was one of his faves of Christmas 2025. :)
