This fun red striped paper in the Shimelle True Stories paper pack reminded me of
candy canes so I decided to create this cute Christmas card using the Cool Chick, Oh, Christmas Tree, and Christmas Cheer stamp sets. I heat embossed some pretty silver snowflakes on the blue sky paper also in the pack, and I layered on my stamped images along with a hand cut snow bank.
I paper pieced the penguin's little hat and scarf as well as the Christmas tree with more papers from the True Stories collection and coloured with Prismacolor Markers. I used some glittery embossing powder on the edges of the tree to add a snowy feel!
Inside I used snowflakes and a sentiment from the Christmas Cheer set:
For my card I used these awesome stamp sets:

ReplyDeleteLove that you colored the chick as a penguin. I like that idea much better. Looks fantastic!
ReplyDeleteOh, my gosh, SNOW!?!? I'm a summer girl, myself! But I love your card. That penguin is too cute. I bet he enjoys the snow -- makes him feel right at home. Thanks for including the song in your post, and for playing with us at Cut it Up for our Inspired challenge!
