North Pole Friends...

 

Hello again!

It's time to start looking forward to Christmas with the newest digital release at Sweet November Stamps. To do that we are heading to the North Pole to meet a few of Santa's favorite polar bear pals. These four festive North Pole Friends and their Scene Builder set are ready to celebrate Christmas at the top of the world. Alpine, North, Claus and Yule look forward to this special time of year when the countdown to the big day is on and life at the Pole really starts hoppin'. 

For my first card I printed out Claus along with the tree, present and iceberg from the background builder set to help create this scene. I actually flipped the iceberg upside down and cropped off the flat top (now bottom) so that it would become a distant snowy mountain range.


My second card features rolly-polly North with his long ol' scarf wrapped snugly around his neck. The background this time is completely inspired by Sandy Allnock's new Winter Copic Enchantment class. I just thought he would look perfect sitting outside of a large ice cave. :)     


Finally there is sleepy Yule who is floating along on the iceberg from the background builder set under a sky dancing with Northern Lights. I guess her got tired waiting up for Santa, LOL!

Now be sure to go check out the Friends of Sweet November Stamps group on Facebook for even more North Pole Friends inspiration from Caitlin, Faye and Tee as well as our wonderful guest designer Danni Bindel! I will also be coloring Alpine Live later this morning at 11am PST on my Adventures in Coloring with Amy Facebook page and I hope to see you there!

You can also find us on Instagram @sweetnovemberstamps and don't forget to use the #sweetnovemberstamps any time you share a card or project using SN images so we can see all of your beautiful makes!
