Penguins at Day of the Month Card Club!

Hello crafty friends! I'm delighted to guest designing again at Day of the Month Card Club - this time for Challenge 59 celebrating Penguin Awareness Day!! Here's my inspiration card:


Supplies: Paper - Park Lane gold A2 card;
Neenah white; Hero Arts Glitter Basics; 
Recollections green; Lawn Fawn Petite Spiffier Speckles
Stamps - Hero Arts Holiday Foliage Messages
Stamps with dies - Sunny Studio Penguin Party (dies HERE)
Dies - Memory Box Pine Tree Grove;
A Jillian Vance Design Stitched Dot Rectangle Backdrop Set
Other - Copic Markers; foam tape


Somehow I missed the email about the challenge until after the due date for my card - oops! But with a follow-up from the team, I got busy!! Fortunately, I had a stack of stamped penguins in my bits box and was able to put together a card quickly. Just colored the penguins, die cut some layered die cut trees & snowy hill, stamped a sentiment, added everything to a stitched rectangle & then the card - done!

I hope I've inspired you to join in this fun challenge. Learning from last year, I'm ramping up my Christmas card production early in the year so I don't come up short when it comes time for mailing!!

Happy crafting and thanks for stopping by!
