Today’s cards were made for the June Christmas Stampathon where our theme is ‘Fun Folds’. I have used the adorable penguin from the Wild Bunch stamp set and the retired Beary Cute dsp.
Colours used in this card are:
I created the Christmas Penguin card using the following supplies:
Balmy Blue card base – 8¼” by 5¾” – scored at 4⅛”. With the front at 1” on the right of the trimmer cut from the top down to 1¾” and from the bottom up to 3⅛”. Score the remaining 1” tab.
Beary Christmas dsp – 5¾” by 3”
Basic White – 5⅝” by 4” -for the inside
Thick Basic White – 3” by 3” – for the focal point
Balmy Blue – 2⅞” by 2⅞”
Basic White – 2¾” by 2¾”
The panel of Beary Christmas dsp was glued to the front of the Balmy Blue card base.

The inner panel of Basic White card was then added to the inside.

I stamped the penguin, from the Wild Bunch stamp set onto the 2¾” by 2¾” piece of Basic White card with Secret Sea ink and used the following Blends Pens to colour in the image – Balmy Blue, Daffodil Delight and Secret Sea.

The sentiment from the retired Itty Bitty Christmas stamp set was stamped with the same Secret Sea ink. The whole panel was then glued to the Balmy Blue Layer and then to the square of Thick Basic White card.

I added Multipurpose Liquid Adhesive to the 1” tab and placed the decorated square in position, holding it until the glue set. A trio of retired Iridescent Snowflakes finished the cards.
