Adorable Penguins!

Hi OCS Fans!
I've been wanting to try this style of "Flex or bendy" card for a while now and when I saw the Penguins from the High Hopes "Winter Joy" release I just knew they would work perfectly! Penguins hold a special place in my heart as they were my Grandma's favourites and they always make me think of her!

I found the card base file in the Silhouette store and used my Cameo to create the base. Then I stamped and coloured the "Happy Penguin, Penguin Earmuff and Chilly Penguin" with my Copic Markers. After cutting them out with my Cameo, I popped them up with foam squares and added them to my little scene!

Here you can see how the cards works. You just tuck the tabs into place and it creates that "bend" in your card. You can still mail it as it will be flat when the tabs aren't tucked in!

Copics Used:

Chilly Penguin

I hope you have had a chance to take a look at the new Winter Joy release. It is full of super cute snowmen, dog, cat and some cute chubby penguins to name a few. 

This week given our blasts of winter we've had, I chose to play with Chilly Penguin. I kinda feel like him - chilly! and all I can say is Brrrr!

After colouring my stamp with alcohol markers and paper piecing his scarf, I cut this cutie out with a classic circle die. i used my circle cutter to cut a matching piece of cardstock to go behind him. I created my snowy scene by cutting out some stitched hills and trees and added some glittery snow to them. All of this was mounted on an easel style base and Bo Bunny patterned paper. I stamped and coloured my sentiment and added some glitter snow to that too. The purple ink turned it purple - at first I was upset about this - now I think it matches perfectly. One of those happy accidents as they say. Some ribbon and sparkly purple gumdrops finish off my card.
