Christmas Greetings
Hello crafters! I brought out the sweet penguin set called Penguin Palace for today's card. I started with a double mat of the Looped Rectangles cut in white. I used a piece of white card covered with a sticky adhesive sheet that I cut into a sloping hill. I peeled the backing paper off and coated it with Frosted Sparkle Glitterbitz. I cut the igloo in white and added some highlights to it with a blue pencil then added it to the glittered hill with mounting foam. I used the North Pole sign cut in black, then added the sign in white with the words North Pole on it. I cut two penguins and accesorized them with hats and scarfs from the set. I added a small present to the side of them. I cut the Christmas Greetings words in both red and black and shadowed them, then added them to a white shadow backing die and glued them to the top of the card. The card was completed with white, red and black mats and layers. The finished dimensions are 5 1/2" x 10" in size. All for now Sue x
Morning Sue.

Hi Sue.
ReplyDeleteI do love your festive characters they have so much personality, of course being a nanny gave me the perfect reason to enjoy them more plus people that ask me for cards ready for this season that have children and grandchildren love them too, and to add your puppies and kittens to the mix last year was perfect (no I won't lol)
It's a cute sample with lots to look at, perfect for penguin lovers all round the world. Love to all and keep safe xxx

Good morning Sue,
ReplyDeleteA fabulous card today with your cute little penguins, when my Son was young he walked beside the penguins when they came out for their walk at the zoo & he loved that so I always put a penguin on his card. Yvonne xx

ReplyDeleteHi Sue, I must apologise for forgetting to leave a comment yesterday, your card made me smile and I love the ghost that looks more scared than those he/she is meant to be scaring :-).
ReplyDeleteI adore today's card. I didn't get this set when you launched it but earlier this year I searched around and was able to get it along with the polar bears so I am all set to make some great cute cards and this one will be one of my inspirations, thank you.
