Waddle On, It's Christmas Time!

Hi crafty friends! Today I'm sharing a flippin' fun Christmas card featuring the Penguining Stamp Set and coordinating dies from The Rabbit Hole Designs.

I stamped the images from the Penguining stamp set then cut them out with the matching dies. I colored them with alcohol markers. I blended Distress Oxide Salty Ocean using a drift stencil to create soft, snowy hills. I then die-cut the panel using the largest frame from the You've Been Framed Layering Dies and then adhered it to an A2 blue card base.

I stamped the sentiment on purple cardstock and die-cut it using a sentiment strip die which is included in the You've Been Framed Layering Dies. I adhered the images and sentiment with foam tape for added dimension. Silver sequins added a finishing touch to the card.

Thanks for dropping in. Have a PENG-tastic day!!

It's Penguining To Look A Lot Like Christmas

Good morning friends! Today I'm sharing a charming Christmas card that showcases the Penguining 4x4 Stamp Set from The Rabbit Hole Designs, illustrated by Tatsiana Zayats.

I began by stamping all the images, followed by coloring them with alcohol markers and fussy cutting them out. There are, however, matching dies available.

I used a stitched square die to cut a panel of white cardstock. Next, I blended snow drifts onto the panel using blue ink. To create the igloo, a stitched circle was used, and the bottom half was cut using scissors. I used a ruler to create the ice cubes and a small hole punch to decorate it.

I adhered the igloo and two penguins directly to the panel using liquid glue, while one image was adhered with foam tape. The sentiment is from the same set and was adhered to the panel with liquid glue. Finally, I adhered the panel to a light blue card base and embellished it with snowflakes to complete the card.
