Hello and welcome to my last post before Christmas
I wish all my blog friends, both old and new, a VERY HAPPY CHRISTMAS and a terrific NEW YEAR.
Please know that I am very grateful for your visits. As I have not been out and about as much as normal during the pandemic, your virtual company has meant even more to me than normal. THANK YOU.
I made a few Christmas cards with the "daddy" penguin of the Katzelkraft 'Grumpy Penguins' family.
He's so grumpy looking that I just HAD to find a sentiment with the word JOLLY in it, just to be ironic.
I spent some time just stamping, colouring and cutting out the penguins first.
Next, I stamped and stencilled some backgrounds onto the card front. Each penguin was then stuck to the card with foam pads.

The stamp I used to ground the penguin is from the Asia Marquet Stamp Set "Be Different" by IndigoBlu. A very useful little stamp it is too - and one that could easily be overlooked! The sentiment is so old, I can't remember who it's by, sorry!
Thanks again for your visit.
I wish you peace and joy.
You cards are lovely and such fun with the Penguins Sarn.
ReplyDeleteHave a lovely Christmas and if your up in the tree house for long mind your step as I heard there was a special delivery with pop corks.

I love those grumpy penguins and will have to stop myself rushing to my own ToC to get out my own set.
ReplyDeleteWishing you and yours a very Merry Christmas and a Happy (and above all HEALTHY) New Year, and the same to all of your readers

Just love the humour in these cards - fab grumpy penguin and just when I'd told myself I'm not buying any more 'stuff' to add to my stash 🙄. Thanks so much for your frequent visits and comments, they are so appreciated by this 'hermit'.

ReplyDeleteHope you and your family have a happy Nd healthy Christmas and all the best for 2022
