Penguin Party

 I have a fun little penguin party today over on the Studio Katia blog. Once the Christmas holidays are over I start to build up my winter birthday card stock supply. My Dad loves penguins so I gave this one to him for his 92nd birthday that happened last week!

I stamped the penguins and iceberg from the Kobi's Ice Day stamp set and then die cut the images with the Kobi's Ice Day co-ordinating dies. I coloured the images with Copic markers with some very simple two-shade colouring. The trees are from the Holiday Village Stamp set and they were cut with the Holiday Village co-ordinating dies, also coloured with Copic markers.

To create my icy water background I swept some Salty Ocean Distress Oxide ink on to my glass mat and spritzed it with some clean water. Then I swept a piece of Bristol Smooth cardstock over the ink on one quick motion.

Once the inked background was dry I attached it to the card base using Studio Katia white foam adhesive. The iceberg, penguins and trees were attached with a combination of adhesive tape and white foam tape.

The sentiment in the bottom right corner is from the It's Your Birthday stamp set and was white embossed on black cardstock. To finish the card off I glued some Iridescent Crystals to the card front and it is done

I hope you have some time to pop over to see my card, also to find out if you were the winner of last week's GIVEAWAY !


Thanks so much for stopping in today!
