Penguin 21st Birthday Card

Hello and welcome back.

I made today's card for a colleagues 21st birthday and she as loves penguins so it just had to be penguins. This is a really derpy looking penguin, but it's such a fun little penguin, this has got to be one of my favourites.



The base card is Smoky Slate, with a layer of Whisper White card on top. The Whisper White card has been put through the Big Shot in the Softly Falling Embossing Folder. So pretty...



I made two banners for the sentiment and stamped Happy on one in Smoky Slate ink and Birthday on the other, the sentiment is from the set Big On Birthdays, its photopolymer so I cut the Happy Birthday stamp to separate the Happy and the Birthday... I love that you can do this with this type of stamp...



The Penguin is a template I made from a picture I had seen, the bow is made using the Bow Builder Punch (in the main catalogue) this makes such cute little bows and the heart is also a Stampin'Up punch.




I made the balloon using the 2 1/2" Circle punch and added a little hand cut frill to it. I then covered it with Wink of Stella Clear Glitter, it gives it such a shimmery look to the balloon. I cut out the 21 using the Large Number Framelits, these and the matching Large Letter Framelits are my New Best Friends......
I love how this came out and luckily so did the recipient....

Day 6 Punch Art Week

Hello and welcome back...

I really love shaped cards, so when I saw this template I just couldn't resist making it. It's just such a derpy looking Penguin and so adorable.



Isn't she just the cutest, you can download the Free template from http://mamadinis.blogspot.co.uk/2011/12/penguin-card.html.



I cut the body from Basic Black card, leaving the join at the top so she can stand up.


I used the Bow Builder Punch to make her pretty bow out of Blushing Bride card, I sponged around the edges with Blushing Bride ink before I assembled it.


I cut the tummy out of Whisper White card and sponged it with Basic Black ink before sticking onto the card front. I cut the eyes out of Basic Black card and the inner eyes out of Whisper White card and stuck them together, I added the pupils with a Basic Black marker pen and put some white highlights on with a White Gel Pen. The little Pink Heart is from the Itty Bitty Punch Pack. The beak is cut out of Crushed Curry card with a white gel pen accent on it.



The feet have also been cut from Crushed Curry card and sponged and highlighted. I love this so much it may stay in my craft room....lol

Day 7 of Playful Pals/Pyramid Pals - Penguin Fun

Hello and welcome back.

To the last day of Pyramid Pals/Playful Pals, there is so much you can do with this amazing bundle, its hard to stop, so today I am sharing both a Pyramid box and a matching card.



Aren't these little Penguins just adorable, the are just so easy to make along with their matching cards.



I used the pre-scored Note Cards and envelopes, you get 20 in a pack so you can make up a whole bunch of them. I used the dies to cut out the triangle body, white front, wings or flippers,feet, beak and eyes. I stuck them all together before putting him on the card with dimensionals.



I used the Balloon Celebration stamp set to stamp the balloon, one in Tempting Turquoise and Pacific Point and the other in Melon Mambo and Real Red. I then punched them out using the matching Punch. I stuck it on the card using dimensionals.


The Happy Birthday is from the Tin Of Cards stamp set, I really love these particular stamps.



The same card just with a different colour balloon.


The cute little treat boxes are awesome and really easy to make, just cut out two box pieces from Basic Black card and stick them together. Them cut out the flippers, feet, beak and white front using the dies in the set, stick them onto the Pyramid box.



Stamp the eyes onto Whisper White card and cut them out with the die in the set and stick them onto the box....ta daa..all done.





This has been such a fun bundle to create with, I can see me reaching for it time and again..
