Christmas Penguins

I have been playing around with some non traditional colours for my Christmas cards lately and this week is no exception. 

These cute penguins got the "no peeking, poking, shaking" memo a little late I think! It was so hard as a child to resist the temptation to pick up the presents from under tree wasn't it?! If we got caught we got in some major trouble so I would sit and look at the presents instead and try to guess. 
Truthfully, I find it just as tempting as an adult! 

I coloured my stamp with alcohol markers and cut it out using a hand stitched rectangle die. I added some fun polka dots to one of the hats just for fun and some pom poms with just a hint of silver in them. I was going to re stamp my sentiment because it isn't 100% straight but given what the sentiment is, I left a little crooked because it fits the card theme. 
I added this to an older collection of patterned paper from Bo Bunny. Some matching white and silver ribbon and sliver glitter enamel dots finish off my card.

Hi OCS Fans!

I'm back today to share with you another super cute stamp from the New "Woodsy Christmas" Collection from High Hopes! Yesterday was "Gnomes" and today is all about Penguins LOL. This is the "Christmas Penguins" stamp. I love the little guy peeking around the big present, he's just too cute!

Today's paper layers are from the Echo Park " Celebrate Christmas" 6x6 collection! I love adding lots of layers of different papers and embellishments to my cards! The trim on the Santa hats is Liquid Applique, which you apply, let dry, then heat with your heat gun as you watch it pop up! You can't tell from the photos but I also added Spectrum Noir Clear Glitter pen to all the bow and ribbons. The sentiment is called "Happy Holidays".

I used the HH sentiment called "Magic of Christmas" on the inside along with some more of the EP paper.

Copics Used:

N1, N4, N5, N7

R01, R24, R27, R29, R56

YG63, YG67, YG93, YG95, YG97
