Hi Friends
Sorry, but I have a bit of a Christmas fest going on in this blog post, so you'd best grab a nice mug of hot chocolate and settle in!
These Christmas cards were made with the wonderful Katzelkraft "Grumpy Penguins" stamp set.
I'm entering the single card (below) to the CHRISTMAS CRAFT CREATIONS challenge where they have a snippets theme going on this month. However, if you look further down this post, there are even MORE penguin cards using up those ever-increasing snippets!

To create my cards, I first gathered together a few of my MANY white snippet strips (left over from cutting my own card bases). Then I stamped a load of penguins on them.

| All coloured and cut out ready to go on cards. |
Once that was done, I made a few inky backgrounds then glued the penguins and snowflakes on top.

Had LOADS of fun making these, and I still have a few penguins left to add to more cards when the mood is upon me!





And they make such cracking Christmas cards too!

That was a lot of penguins! Great idea though and the cards are fab.
ReplyDeleteI just love these grumpy penguins, they surely remind me of myself when I have to deal with this icy cold winter. (It did warm up again this weekend so less grumpy today :)
ReplyDeleteYour cards are all so fabulous with the beautiful stenciling!
Those penguins are so wonderful! I'm not sure if they are serious or crabby. In any case the cards are really great and a wonderful way to use up those scraps. Thank you for joining us for this challenge at Christmas Craft Creations Challenge and look forward to seeing you again soon!
