Happy Holidays


I am hard at work on getting my 2009 Christmas cards ready for mailing and today you get to see card #28. This precious penguin is from Angels Landing's Penguin Chicks released last week. The faux stitching is from Faux Stitched Borders.

The penguin was printed on white Georgia Pacific card stock and colored with Prismacolor Pencils blended with GooGone. The torn snowflake sky is from the Paper Studio and was mounted on a white Papertrey Ink cardfront. The penguin was cut out and popped up with dimensionals.

For a little added bling, I applied Star Dust Stickles to the snowflakes.

I printed the faux stitching on computer paper, laid it over the edge of the card, and pierced it. After discarding the computer paper, I used a red marker to add the faux stitching.

The sentiment from Kitchen Sink Stamps was stamped in SU Real Red.
