Polar Pals for Jingle Belles

I sat down and got a card made for the Jingle Belles challenge and I used one of my favorite SU sets, Polar Pals. It's an older (retired) set but its perfect for Alaska!

When some people see this image the first thing they probably think is the word "Eskimo". A lot of people think the term 'Eskimo' refers to the people of Alaska and that's incorrect. It technically only refers to 2 groups of Native Alaskans, the Inupiat and the Yupiks. Just a little trivia for your day today!

Here is my card made with the sketch...and this sketch was so versatile that I also used it for a Fathers Day card, as you can see HERE.

Supplies used(all supplies SU unless otherwise noted):
Stamps: Polar Pals (retired), sentiment from More Merry Messages
Paper: Old Olive, Confetti Cream (retired), Merry Moments DSP (retired)
Ink: Real Red, Chocolate Chip, Garden Green, Versamark
Accessories: Big Shot, Nestabilities Standard Circle, Chunky Glitter, sponge, dimensionals
