{BYSHC} Sketch Challenge 70 ~ Cold Weather Penguins ~ Crafty Stamp Co.

Hello there crafty friend!

I'm sharing one last card for the {BYSHC} Sketch Challenge 70 hosted in the Build Your Stash Holiday Cardmakers Facebook group!

I inked up one of the adorable penguins from the Cold Weather Penguins 4x6 Stamp Set and fussy cut it leaving a white border. I also stamped the sentiment and trimmed it.

I paired up the penguin with the Merry Latte 6x6 Paper Pad. I used the measurements from the sketch for the two bottom layers. I die cut the red paper with a banner die from my stash. I also die cut a circle from the bottom green layer before I adhered the layers. A trick I like to do to stretch my stash of papers. I also die cut a scrap of white card stock and just trimmed off the top to look like a snowy hill. The penguin looked thirsty so I cut a coffee cup from behind the red banner {before adhering the layers, of course} and trimmed it on the black line.

I adhered all of my layers. Adhered the card front to a white A2 card base. And then popped up the circle and sentiment with foam tape finishing it off.
