Playful Penguins

Today I am sharing a sweet Christmas card made using the gorgeous Playful Penguins stamp set.

To recreate the Playful Penguin card you will need:

Thick Whisper White card base – 8¼” by 5⅞” scored at 4⅛” – rounded upper left corner
Blueberry Bushel – 5½” by 3¾” – rounded upper left corner
Feels Like Frost dsp – 5⅜” by 3⅝” – rounded upper left corner
Blueberry Bushel – 3½” by 3½”
Whisper White – 3½” by 3½”
Scrap Whisper White

I wrapped a piece of ⅛” Blueberry Bushel Grosgrain Ribbon around the designer series paper (dsp) adhering it on the back with Sellotape before adhering it to the Blueberry Bushel layer using Multipurpose Liquid Adhesive. The panel was then added to the Thick Whisper White card base using the same adhesive.

I stamped a penguin using Memento Tuxedo Black ink onto the Whisper White square and die cut it using the Stitched Shapes Dies. I die cut a scalloped circle using the square of Blueberry Bushel and the Layering Circle dies and glued the 2 pieces together.

The stamped circle was then added to the card front using the same Multipurpose Liquid Adhesive.

The second penguin was stamped in the same Memento ink onto scrap Whisper White and fussy cut using my sharp scissors. I added it to the card front on Dimensionals.

The sentiment from the Christmas Gleaming stamp set was stamped on scrap Whisper White in Blueberry Bushel ink. This was then fussy cut and added to the card front on Dimensionals.

I added a ribbon bow with a Mini Glue Dot and a trio of Noble Peacock Rhinestones. I decorated the inside by stamping a penguin and used the same image to decorate the envelope

Such a simple but pretty card. I hope you like it.
