For my card today I decided to feature the "Penguin Christmas" stamp set. I had the hardest time picking which stamp set to ink up first, but I just couldn't resist this penguin. Did you know that I collect penguin stamps? Well you do now! I swear they are my weakness...okay all cute stamps are my weakness, but penguins are even more so. This cutie is a fabulous size to work with and so easy to color. I used shades of teals for this hat, scarf, and this ornament he's holding. I created a square 5.5" x 5.5" card which allows me to really showcase this fabulous stamp! I used this great winter paper from Echo Park called Winter Park and I just love how this turned out! I also wanted to add some texture so I pulled out my snowflake border die from TE and added the snowflakes to the background of the card. I felt it still needed something to pull it all together so I added this fabulous tinsel ribbon, which reminds me so much of a light dusting of snow.
