Directions:

  • First things first – if you haven’t made your card yet, go ahead and do that. I made mine a basic square shape but yours can be any shape or size you like!
  • Now grab your large potato and knife.
  • Cut your potato in half. You only need ONE potato half for your craft. This is your stamp for the polar bear’s head.
  • Squirt some white craft paint on your paper plate.
  • Rub your potato half in the white paint, until it’s completely covered.
  • Next take the potato half and stamp it in the center of the white cardstock.
  • Lift up the potato half and set it on the paper plate.
  • Real quick, using the small paint brush or your finger, add two white ears on your stamped design.
  • Set aside the card to allow it to dry completely.
  • Now grab your gray cardstock paper and scissors.
  • Cut out an oval nose piece for the polar bear.
  • Use the Sharpie marker to draw on a nose/mouth on the oval shape.
  • When the stamped design from earlier is dry enough, go ahead and grab it, along with the glue stick.
  • Secure the paper piece to the stamped design.
  • Add on the wiggle eyes.
  • To finish off the potato stamped polar bear card, use the Sharpie marker to write a clever message like “love you beary much” to the front of the card, as well as anything else you like inside.
  • Add any other embellishments you see fit, before gifting away your stamped potato polar bear card proudly!
  • Discard the used potato afterwards {please do not attempt to eat it afterwards.}
  • Don’t forget to share pictures with us on your social media sites! #gluedtomycrafts
