Penguin family

I showed a Penguin couple last week and today I'll show a Penguin family - LOL.

I stamped the image of the two penguins with their igloo with Memento Tuxedo black ink onto Bella’sBestest paper and coloured it with copics.  I stamped the little baby penguin the same way and popped him up in front.  The paper is retired SU paper.  I added sparkle with some sequins across the skyline and glitter for the snow.  The snowflake was made with glitter paper and I added a sparkle dot in the middle.  I used some tinsel cord underneath the snowflake.

I've got a few more cards to show coming up.

Merry Christmas

Wishing you a very peaceful and happy Christmas.  

I sponged some distress inks (Salty Ocean, Tumbled Glass, Dusty Concord)  onto some mixed media paper.  Then I stamped the image, Christmas Blessings (Taylored Expressions) with Memento Tuxedo black ink and restamped it again with Versamark Dazzle Champagne ink adding clear embossing powder on top.  It's shiny and sparkly in real life but you can't see it very well here.  The paper is SU Elegant Eggplant.  

Thanks for stopping by my little blog this past year.

Puppy love

I made this card as a special request for a friend.  This sweet little dog is from the TE Beary Special stamp set.

I stamped the dog with Memento Tuxedo black ink onto Bella’sBestest paper and coloured it with copics. 

The paper is Echo Park "A Walk in the Park" along with some SU Chocolate Chip and Kiwi Kiss.  I added some ribbon in matching colours across the front.

Hope you're having a good week.

Sweet Sunday Penguins - SSSC227

I played along with Karen's Sweet Sunday Sketch Challenge (SSSC227) and since I am so behind on my Christmas cards for this year, I decided to add one more to my stash.

I stamped two of the cute images from Penguin Pals onto Bella's Bestest paper with Memento Tuxedo black ink and coloured them with copics.  They were super fast to colour.  I added some glitter to their hats and repeated the musical notes across the top.  I followed the sketch adding a little button with a hemp cord bow.

Here are the copics I used.

Cheerio.....Leslie
