This was the February Challenge

I used the colors, the sketch (each figure is one of the circles), theme: Polar Bear and technique - Texture: two of the images are raised p on foam dots and the background is woodgrain (although it's paper but looks textured!?)

Your card is amazing. Love the design and your great idea to use wood paper for the background!!!
Absolutely, artistic licence is very important in this game. I love your card, your polar bear is so stylish and that background is wonderful xx
Great card Julia, background your paper has so much texture and the penguins and polar bears always get together for Christmas :)
Artistic licence indeed and one adorable and 'textural' card Julia x.
I didn't know that penguins and polar bears don't come from the same place. I need to watch National Geographic more, I think! I love your card and I think they look very friendly! I'm sure that Greta is enjoying this card!
Hi Julia, I'm loving your sweet polar bear scene and really like that sentiment!
Super 'cool' card Julia, the polar bears was a great theme...along with your penguin - never minding that they've not met...we certainly don't know that. Great use of the themes for CCC. I see I'm sending you my March card - it'll definitely be Spring with those gorgeous colours....hugs Robyn
Your card is amazing Julia, great how you used all the options. And a penguin and polar bear together....well I think one of them is on vacation 😉.
Hugs, Annerieke
"Why don't polar bears eat penguins?" - sounds like your hubby would answer that one in a heartbeat! Artistic licence makes for a great card though Julia, love the woodgrain background and the way you worked in the colours for CCC!
Hi Julia,
Your card is a beauty! The polar bear is very nice and the mountains...perfect on your card...
Fun card Julia! The wood background is perfect ... it does look textured!! Your fun pointy mountains, polar bear and penquin are adorable. Love the sweater on the polar bear :) Artistic license for sure! :) xx
Darling polar bear card, Julia - just love the woodgrain behind with all the trees and mountains!! Cute visiting penguin too :)
