Hello there! Thank you for joining me today for a really fun and easy card to create with the Holiday Catalog Penguin Place Bundle that will be available to you in a few days + the Penguin Playmates Designer Series Paper from Sale-A-Bration, also starting on August 3. Below is a sneak peek at the bundle and coordinating designer series paper. I will be featuring a Concept Art card of this suite on Wednesday.
Purchase the Penguin Place Bundle for $31.50, that includes the photopolymer stamp set and Penguin Builder Punch; add another $18.50 to your order for adhesive, card stock, whatever you want, and get the Penguin Playmates Designer Series Paper for FREE with Sale-A-Bration!
The designer series paper is so very well worth coordinating your products. All I stamped on this card was the sentiment. The bear and penguin were fussy cut from the designer series paper.
Layering Circles, Penned Flowers, and Stitched Rectangle Dies were used in my sketch to bring this adorable project to life.
The colors in the Penguin Playmates Designer Series Paper are Balmy Blue, Basic Black, Calypso Coral, Fresh Freesia, Just Jade, Misty Moonlight, and Soft Sea Foam.
If you look at the right DSP panel on the card of the Soft Sea Foam tree pattern, we also incorporate a little bit of Pear Pizzazz for the darker trees. My sentiment was stamped with Pear Pizzazz from Words of Cheer, which is also new in the Holiday Catalog and available to you on August 3.
I’m especially excited about the Words of Cheer sentiment that I used. I have been clamoring for holiday sentiments that are single appropriate and FINALLY!
Don’t be afraid to mix your colors, especially when you see it in the designer series paper, but it’s not necessarily mentioned. If you look at the bear image on the left, there are complimentary colors that can be used Granite Gray or Smoky Slate stamped off once. There’s also a little bit of pink used on the DSP animal cheeks.
If you have not received your Holiday or Sale-A-Bration Catalogs, please let me know and I will be sure to get these to you in the mail immediately.
This is such a great winter and Christmas bundle that is oozing with versatility and endless possibilities! This bundle has been extremely popular, so be sure to pick yours up in a few days on Tuesday, August 3.
As always, your Supplies and Instructions are listed below.
I started out with an A2 Basic White Thick CS and layered on a piece of the Soft Sea Foam tree pattern from the Sale-A-Bration Penguin Playmates Designer Series Paper. A piece of Just Jade CS was cut from Penned Flowers. Another piece of Basic White Regular CS was cut and dry embossed with the Painted Texture EF. The CS and DSP above was adhered to a piece of A2 Basic White Regular CS with Tear & Tape Adhesive. I wrapped a piece of gingham Just Jade Ribbon from Flowers for Every Season Ribbon Combo Pack where the DSP meets the Just Jade CS. First, the DSP was layered on top of the Just Jade scallop. The Painted Texture Basic White Regular CS was adhered to the A2 Basic White Thick card base, then the Just Jade scallop and DSP were adhered to the Basic White Regular CS.
The bow on the right is a cheater’s bow, tied as the last step once I assembled the card for bow placement.
I die-cut a large Layering Circle from Basic White Regular that I adhered to the card base with Multipurpose Liquid Adhesive. The bear and penguin were fussy cut with our Paper Snips from the Penguin Playmates Designer Series Paper and adhered to the circle die-cut with Stampin’ Dimensionals and liquid adhesive.
The sentiment from Words of Cheer was stamped onto a piece of Basic White Regular and cut with a die from Stitched Rectangles. This was also adhered to the card base with Stampin’ Dimensionals.
Finally, I tied my cheater’s bow at the bottom right as shown.
I hope you enjoyed today’s project. Thank you for stopping by for a visit and have a great day!
