Christmas Card Club - Challenge # 13 Penguins

Good morning all.  Today it is time for another card from our friendly little club.  This time the challenge was chosen by Carol and she asked us to use penguins or some other Christmas bird.

My Card



My card is 5" x 7" and is for a child so I kept it fairly simple - and flat, so fine for posting.  The blue snowflake glitter paper (although the glitter doesn't show in the pic) and the penguin strip are from Helz Cuppleditch "Special Delivery" pack.  The pre-coloured penguin image is from Pink Gem Designs and matted onto SB Lacy Circles.  A  few snowflakes from my drawer of ready cut dies finished off this very simple card.  Of course, no Christmas card would be complete without some sparkle so I added Diamond Dust to the fur and bobble on his cap and some red gems to the snowflakes.

Well that's all for today.  Hope you are all well and enjoying the sunshine.

Adorable image, and I am so loving that perfect border. What luck to have this go so splendidly with your cute penguin. The red S/B die really set this little fella off to a "T", and the sparkling snowflake is a big winner. This child is going to be so dazzled at this lovely card. TFS & Hugs
