December DD/DDA Penguin Challenge

Published by inkypaws at 12:40 am under Christmas, High Hopes

A couple months ago the Dirty Dozen and Dirty Dozen Alumni decided that we get together and do a challenge each month.

This month’s challenge is to:

Make a penguin card.

It has to have “ice” (sparkle).

No blue anywhere on the card - THE HARD PART!!!

I chose this sweet little Penguin from High Hopes Rubber Stamps. The image was stamped on white CS with Ranger Distress Black Soot ink. I colored the image with Copic markers. I punched him out with a Marvy Giga circle punch. I added some Liquid Applique for the snow and poofed it with a heat tool.

I sponged the edge lightly with Ranger Black Soot ink - I stamped off nearly all the ink before I started sponging to get a light gray. I then added some Diamond Stickles to the bow.

Here he is!

Stamps: K-035 Package Packin’ Penguin - High Hopes Rubber Stamps

Paper: Georgia Pacific White, Ruby Red, Bravo Burgundy

Ink: Ranger Distress Black Soot, Walnut Stain

Accessories: Sponge, Diamond Stickles, Copic Markers, Snowflake Brad, Liquid Applique, Heat Tool, Giga Circle punch

You can find all the other girls cards—> HERE <—

OMG. GREAT! I need some images for my DD! She is 10 and collects penguins. When she gets home from school she’ll be in heaven to see this little guy!
