BRR....!

Hello!

Look at this adorable "Skating Along" Penguin from High Hopes Rubber Stamps! He looks like he doesn't have a care in the world! He's just out enjoying the winter day skating on the pond. He's got quite the form too LOL!

I decided to pair Mr Penguin with the "Frozen Skating Pond" to have a little scene for him to skate along! I stamped the images onto Copic friendly paper and then set about colouring them in. I cut the pond out using a MFT Stitched Square die, and cut the Penguin out using my Brother Cut N Scan. Next I popped him up using foam squares over part of the pond. I thought the HH "Brr" sentiment was perfect as I'm sure it's cold where he is! Lots of sparkle to my card today..... Twinkle Stickles on the trees and glitter pen on the ice surfaces. A few enamel dots finish off my card.

Penguin Kind Of Season!

Happy Tuesday!

Look at today's cutie!!! Isn't this penguin just the sweetest?!! This adorable image is called "Skating Along" from High Hopes Stamps! The expression on his face just makes me giggle! That's how I skate too all graceful (lol).... except because I'm not looking down, I'd trip and fall flat out LOL! 

To start I stamped the background High Hopes image called "Winter Wonderland Background" with embossing ink and added white embossing powder. Then I used my heat gun to melt the embossing powder. I stamped the background a second time on some masking paper and cut out the trees so I could lay it over the embossed image.  This way the trees would be "protected" while I coloured the sky. Using Distress Oxide Ink in Wilted Violet, Picked Raspberry and Broken China I created my sky and added ink to the snow. Next I used some Lucky Clover Distress Ink and my water brush to colour in the trees. I coloured the "Skating Along" image with my Copics and hand fussy cut it out. I added the image to the background with some foam tape for added dimension. Of course this background and image had to have some sparkle, so I used my Clear Glitter Wink of Stella pen and added it to the snow and the ice the penguin is skating on. A few enamel dots, ribbon and bow finish it all off!

I also used the High Hopes sentiment called "Sleetin' & Freezin'" and popped it up with foam tape as well.
