Hello friends. Here’s another card featuring these adorable penguins from the Lawn Fawn HERE WE GO A-WADDLING stamps. I paired it with an old die set from Catherine Pooler Designs. It was featured in the Winterhaven Stamp of Approval several years ago!
For this card, I cut a piece of Neenah 100lb Classic Crest Cardstock 8.5 X 11″ to 5-1/2 x 8-1/2″ and scored at 4-1/4″ to create a card base and another piece to 4 x 5-1/4″ for the background. I used the Tim Holtz Salty Ocean, Uncharted Mariner, and Chipped Sapphire Distress Oxide Inks to color the background. Then used a snowflake embossing folder (Stampin’ Up! Winter Snow) to give it some dimension. Then I lightly ran a white pigment ink pad (Lawn Fawn Yeti Pigment Ink) over the raised areas; This enhanced the snowflakes a bit more. (TIP: Make sure to let this dry for several hours before touching the panel or use a heat tool to set it). Lastly, I added some splatters using White Acrylic paint.
Next I die cut the the snowy hills from Neenah 100lb Classic Crest Cardstock 8.5 X 11″ with the Lawn Fawn Stitched Hillside Borders and inked it with Tumbled Glass Distress Oxide Ink. I also added some Nuvo Fresh Snowfall Glitter Drops to the snowy hills. I used 3M Foam Tape to adhere the front hillside.
I stamped the images from the Lawn Fawn HERE WE GO A-WADDLING stamps onto Neenah 100lb Classic Crest Cardstock 8.5 X 11″ with Memento Tuxedo Black Ink and colored them with Copic Markers. I used R17, R27 & R59, BG10, BG11 & BG32, R20, N1 & 0, N4, N5 & N8, YR04 & YR07 for the penguins; Y13, Y15 & Y17 for the bell and lantern.
I stamped sentiment from the Lawn Fawn HERE WE GO A-WADDLING stamps onto Neenah 100lb Classic Crest Cardstock 8.5 X 11″ with Memento Tuxedo Black Ink and then cut them down to strips.
On the inside of the card, I stamped a sentiment from the Lawn Fawn Simply Winter Sentiments with Catherine Pooler Designs Rockin’ Red Ink and added a penguin.
