Penguin Joy

Jan8

Sharing another Christmas card that I made using Whimsy Stamps – Penguin Joy – C1140. I love colouring penguins and couldn’t resist this adorable image when I saw it! LOL!

Hammermill – Premium Colour 100 lb. cardstock was used to create a 5.5″ x 4.25″ card base. I cut Recollections – Fireside paper to be the same size and adhered it to the base using double-sided tape. I applied Crafts – Sparkling Stickers – 02-3068629 – Red to a piece of Hammermill – Premium Colour 100 lb. cardstock. Using my Cuttlebug and MFT – Cross Stitch Rectangle dies, I die cut a large rectangle for the Sparkle paper combined piece and a smaller rectangle from Copic Marker X-Press It Blending Card cardstock. Using my MISTI and Memento – Tuxedo Black ink, I stamped the image onto the smaller rectangle. This was coloured in with Copic markers. I applied the snow flakes in the sky using a UNIPosca PC-3M White marker.  Stickles – Diamond was applied to create the snow on the ground. U-Line double-sided tape was applied to both of the die cuts and they were popped up onto the centre of the card.

Christmas Penguins!!!

Nov30

It’s Wednesday, and this week, I made a Christmas card using Christmas Penguins – TDG004 by High Hopes Rubber Stamps for the main image and Happy Holidays – FDG006 (High Hopes Rubber Stamps) for the sentiment. This is just a sneak peek to all of the wonderful images coming soon on Monday, December 6, 2022 as we celebrate our Woodland Winter Release for the month of December at High Hopes Stamps.

 

To make my card this week, I began with a card base of Hammermill – Premium Colour 100 lb. cardstock, cut and scored to be 5.5″ x 4.25″. I die cut Copic Marker X-Press It Blending Card with my Cuttlebug and My Creative Time – Rectangle Frame Layers. With my MISTI and Memento – Tuxedo Black ink, I stamped the image onto the die cut and the sentiment onto Copic Marker X-Press It Blending Card. I coloured the image in with Copic markers and added in the snow in the sky with Gelly Roll Sakura #10 Pen. I combined Cosmic Shimmer Fluffy Stuff and WOW! Embossing Glitter – White Puff Twinkle for their hats and pom-poms and heat embossed them with my Marvy Uchida – Embossing Heat Tool. I added in the snow on the bottom with Cosmic Shimmer Fluffy Stuff and Sprinkled some WOW! Sparkling Snow Embossing Glitter on as well after using a Ranger – Emboss It Pen Clear in spots. This too, was heat embossed with my Marvy Uchida – Embossing Heat Tool. Lastly, I added in some Stickles – Diamond for snow as well. I love sparkle. LOL! Using double-sided tape, I adhered the finished scene to the base card. I rounded the sentiment with a 1/4″ rounder on the top and cut the 2 bottoms at a diagonal. Copic Marker R37 was used to go around the edges. I popped this onto the finished image using U-Line double-sided tape to complete the card.
