Penguin Christmas

Posted on June 30, 2019 8:46 PM by Julie Comment

Welcome to July & to the Splitcoaststampers Fan Club July Christmas Challenge! You’ll need to be Fan Club member but that’s easy…just click the blue link to find out how. Bet you’re wondering what the challenge theme is..I’d love to tell you but you’ll have to go see for yourself.
For my little Penguin Carolers (& 1 reindeer wannabe), I colored them & die cut w/ the matching die. I also die cut the antlers (from a deer die) to place on the center penguin. From the look he’s getting from the penguin on the left, I don’t think he’s buying the reindeer transformation, lol. After die cutting the circle out of the top of the front panel, I stamped the ornament branch on top of the circle & also on a separate circle. I masked the tiny ornament & sponged some streaks of Distress ink over it.

Here are the Copics I used. (Sorry..I forgot to take a pic of the inside.)

Such a wonderful inspiration site Stacy chose! I’m sure a lot of people are familiar w/ Shutterstock..they have so many fabulous photos & clip art. I was inspired by THIS picture. I started w/ a new set from North Coast Creations w/ cute little critters & my card just evolved into what you see.

After stamping & coloring the polar bear family, I added a stitched circle frame then a stitched rectangle frame w/ a smaller stitched rectangle window on top of it. I die cut some white & snowflake paper hills, added them to the bottom & then attached my little fussy cut penguin. The greeting was die cut & colored w/ Copics as well as the narrow blue frame around everything.

Here’s a look at the inside & below it are the Copics I used. For the snowflakes, I punched some different sized snowflakes in a piece of scrap paper & used it as a stencil to sponge on the ink

Penguin Carolers

Posted on November 2, 2018 9:46 PM by Julie 1 Comment

It’s my turn to host the Splitcoast Inspiration Challenge (IC674) & I chose Christmas Central as the site. Christmas will be here before you know it so better get busy! I was inspired by THIS cute plate. I just love the cute penguins.

For my penguin carolers, after stamping, coloring & die cutting them, I hunted around for some paper to go behind them. Nothing looked quite right until I found this box of patterned Christmas cards. It was one of those that had different printed patterns but still blank. I bought them on clearance a long time ago & mostly just to use the card fronts & envelopes. After I die cut it & a white layer, I used a new angled border die to cut the white panel. Originally, I had the black snowflake pattern at the bottom, but decided I liked it better the other way around. The greeting was stamped on a circle along w/ some little snowflakes then I put it all together.

Here’s a look at the inside & below it are the Copics I used.
