Happy Monday! It’s time for our Create with Connie and Mary Inspiration Monday challenge! This week we have some fun penguin cookies for our inspiration piece!
PENGUIN PLACE
Of course…I just had to use Stampin’ Up!’s Penguin Place Stamp Set along with the Stitched Snowflake Dies for my card!
Stampin’ Details:
-
- The base is 4-1/4 x 11 Polished Pink cardstock, scored at 5-1/2 and folded.
- The 4 x 5-1/4 layer of Basic White cardstock was embossed with the snowflake Wintery Embossing Folder. (I ran it thru twice so I covered the entire front.)
- A circle was cut from the Whimsy & Wonder Designer Paper with the Layering Circles Dies and added to the front with Stampin’ Dimensionals.
- Snowflakes were cut from Polished Pink, Blushing Bride and Fresh Freesia cardstock with the Stitched Snowflakes Dies and added to the front with Stampin’ Dimensionals.
- The penguin body was punched from Basic Black, the inside from Basic White, and the feet from Pumpkin Pie cardstock with the Penguin Builder Punch.
- The eyes were stamped with Memento Black Ink and the nose with Pumpkin Pie Ink on the inside Basic White body.
- The scarf and hat from Penguin Place stamp set were stamped with Fresh Freesia ink on Basic White cardstock and hand-cut, then added to the penguin. The penguin was added to the circle with Stampin’ Dimensionals.
- Season’s Greetings was stamped with Polished Pink Ink on Basic White and cut with the 1″ Layering Circle.
- Subtle Shimmer Sequins were added to the circle and the center of the snowflakes for a little bling.
I absolutely LOVE this card with the unusual holiday colors! OK…check out what Mary did with the Inspiration Monday Challenge over on Create with Connie and Mary!
