Krafty Chicks Challenge #576 Christmas Week

Yeah, it's Thursday! Time for another great challenge from the Krafty Chicks Challenge Blog. Let's put the spotlight on Christmas this week! My little penguin friend is back and having lots of fun!

I found this wonderful sketch challenge over on 52 Christmas Card Throwdown that is perfect to showcase the penguin. I just didn't make my card square.


 That cute little penguin is actually an image on one of the sheets of DSP that you can get for FREE from Sale-A-Bration (SAB) until September 30, 2021. I fussy cut him and popped him up as the focal point.


Supplies I used:

  • Penguin Place stamp set: 153410
  • Memento ink pad: 132708
  • Pool Party ink pad: 147107
  • Pumpkin Pie ink pad: 147086
  • Fresh Freesia ink pad: 155611
  • Thick Basic White card stock: 159229
  • Misty Moonlight card stock: 153081
  • Penguin Playmates DSP: 158420 (FREE with SAB until September 30,2021)
  • Blending Brushes: 153611
  • Paper Snips Scissors: 103579
  • Stampin' Cut & Emboss machine: 149653
  • Stitched Rectangles Dies: 151280
  • Stampin' Dimensionals: 104430

I like to keep the inside of the card and the envelope just as CAS. Stamped a penguin topped with a tuque and some snowflakes to have them coordinate with the card. Added a little card stock and scrap DSP to add colour for the inside of the card. And that completes the card set.

Head on over to the Krafty Chicks Challenge Blog for more details about the challenge and for more inspiration for Christmas week from the Design Team. There's even a place to upload your project at the end. I hope you play along with us and show us what's happening in your craft space.
