Hello Crafty Friends!
This is Hanh on the Sunny Studio Stamps blog today with
another inspiration to share with you for the most adorable Roly Poly Penguin set. I just can't get enough of
these cuties!
I have a question ... how do you feel about that white border
between the stamped image and where the dies cut? Some people prefer fussy
cutting right up to the stamped line. Others prefer having that white border.
Today, I decided to do something a little different and to use that white
border to my advantage. I colored in that white border to represent the cookie
part of my penguin-shaped frosted cookies!
I stamped the images
from the Roly Poly Penguin stamp set onto a piece of Neenah Solar White 110 lb
cardstock with Memento Tuxedo Black ink and used the coordinating Roly Poly Penguins Dies to die cut them out. I also
created some snowflake cookies by using the Nested Circle Infinity Dies to die cut
three 1.5" circles. I colored them with Copic markers and accented with a
white gel pen.
COPIC COLORS:
Penguins: T3/5/7,
T0/1, Y38 YR04, R20
Red: R24/27
White: C0/1
Cookie: E53/55
For the snowflake
cookies, I added some snowflakes die cut from white cardstock using the Woolen Mitten Dies set with liquid adhesive. I
finished the cookie by adding silver gems onto the snowflakes for a bit of
shine.
For the cookie box, I
took a piece of pink cardstock and ran it through the die cut machine with
the Dotted Diamond Portrait Die for some texture. I cut
out a window in the center with the second largest die from the Stitched Rectangle Dies. I adhered a piece of clear acetate
to the backside. I took a piece of white cardstock (4.25" x 5.5") and
used the pink window panel as a guide to adhere the cookies to it. I adhered
the penguins with some foam tape for a bit of dimension and interest. Once the
cookies were where I wanted, I adhered the pink window panel with foam tape.
For the cookie box
decorations, I created two small tags using one of the dies from the Sweet Treat Bag Dies. One die cut out of white cardstock
and the other using a patterned paper from the Joyful Holiday Paper Pack. I stamped a sentiment using
parts from the Penguin Party Stamps and Holiday Hugs Stamps with Versafine Satin Red ink. I
tied a red ribbon onto the box and adhered the tags and some snowflakes die cut
from white cardstock using the Basic Mini Shape Dies 2 and Woolen Mitten Dies sets with liquid adhesive. Finally,
I adhered the cookie box to a white card base (4.25" x 5.5").
