Penguin Party Card with Amanda

Hey crafty friends! It’s Amanda here today with you on the blog this lovely Tuesday to share a really “fun & festive” holiday card!

This card is so bright and cheery because of the Joyful Holiday Paper! I planned the entire card around that super fun paper pack! I trimmed the red and pink striped paper down to 4.25” x 5.25” to use as my background panel. The pink snowflake paper is trimmed to 3.75” x 5”. I glued both of these panels together onto an A2 card base.

The arched panel was created using the Stitched Arch Dies and a piece of white cardstock. On this panel, I stamped the hilly trees stamp from the Scenic Route Stamps. This set has the BEST winter backgrounds! I love it!

I used some low tack masking tape to create a mask so I could ink blend the sky. I used Cummerbund and All That Jazz from Catherine Pooler to create the sky. Then, I stamped my sentiment from the Penguin Party Stamps directly onto the sky with black ink.

Then, I stamped my penguins and gift boxes from the Penguin Party Stamps onto white cardstock. Next, it’s time to color everything! I colored my background and images using Copic Markers.

I used a combo of these markers all throughout the scene:
BG0000, BG00, BG01, BG45, BG49
R43, R46
RV10, RV13, RV14, RV17, RV19
YR04, YR09, YR21
YG01, YG06, YG17
N1, N3, N6, N8

I used the coordinating Penguin Party Dies to cut out the penguins and gifts. Then, I put 3D foam squares behind them and added them to the arched panel. I also put 3D foam strips behind the arch panel and added it to the center of the card base. Finally, I added snow with some white acrylic paint!

And that’s it for me today! I hope you’re feeling inspired to make something fun today! Come back tomorrow for more crafty holiday inspo!
