Holiday Penguin


The prompt for Day 11 at Beccy's Place Month long holiday challenge is the letter I. 
I have chosen Ice

The background of this card has been recycled from a Christmas card I have received and I added some torn layers of glitter paper to create snowdrifts.

Holiday Penguin was a CDAC freebie from Starry Nights Studio that has been coloured with Promarkers and Flexmarkers. I added stickles glitter glue to the trim & pompom on the hat.

The tree is a corrugated card diecut I have had in my stash for a good many years. I have wrapped it with tinsel which is a fibre that is actually part of a Christmas themed hair scrunchie. They are held together with elastic and when you removed that there is about 3 metres of thin tinsel in each one. I have enough of this to probably last me a lifetime.....

The pot has been covered with a scrap of cardstock. I added a puffy fabric star with a red star sticker. Finally I added silver peel off stickers for the sentiment and snowflakes.


Card Details :-

Size - 6" x 6"
Tools - Promarkers, Flexmarkers
Embellishments - Stickles glitter glue, die cut tree, tinsel trim, peel off stickers, puffy fabric star

I would like to enter this card into the following challenges (in Alphabetical Order): -
