Inkspirational Challenge #255~Word Prompt - Ice...Polar Playtime...Polar Bear and Penguins

Hello

Before introducing our new challenge, wishing you a most Merry Christmas ! May your festive season be filled with JOY! 

Welcome to Inkspirational Challenge #255, where ICE is the inspiration for the next two weeks. Plenty of possibilities with this cue...from ice cubes, to skating, to ice floes, to icicles to whatever catches your fancy. 'Tis, after all, freezin' season (at least here it is!)

Full on patterned paper and die-cutting mode for me, which seems to be my card-making/crafting style of late. Craft Consortium's Polar Playtime collection is filled with the most adorable polar bears, penguins and fish enjoying themselves in wintry wonderlands. Two cards using these cuties...

First, a 4" circle card, complete with matching envelope. The "happy mail' die sentiment, stamp and heart are part of the envelope die collection. I just want to give the snoozing polar bear a big ol' cuddle!

The penguin sitting on ice cubes...couldn't resist! This is from the 6x6 pack, so a bit smaller than the bear, above. Die cut, matted it with a patterned paper from the 12 x 12 collection, and added the combination to the skating/skiing penguins background paper. 

Both cards, inside, read "Wishing you an 'ice' day!" 

Please check out my teammates' delightful creations, then play along with us!
