Hi crafty friends,Sarahere! Today I am so happy to be here, guestingagain for Sunny Studio Stamps! And today I have three cards featuring the mostadorable penguin stamp set ever, the recent released Roly Poly Penguins!So, let's dive into the first one!
As soon as I saw the stamp set I knew I would have created a sort of patternwith lots and lots of penguins. The dimensions of the images are perfectbecause they aren't too much small so it didn't take a lot to mask and cover anA2 piece of cardstock.
I firstly created all the masking pieces by stamping the 6Roly Poly Penguinson someJudikins Masking Paper (it is my favorite to create masks, and the roll reallylasts a lot). Then I took a piece of A2 cardstock and I started randomlystamping the penguins from the lower edge to the upper one. I then startedcoloring: it didn't take soo long because I firstly colored all the penguins,then all the accessories with the same markers, which are listed below.
• Penguins: 100-N9-N8-N7-N5-N4 | E50 | YR15
• Blue combo: B06 - B04 - B02 - B01 - B00
• Red combo: R39 – R29 – R27 – R24
• Pink combo: R24 - R22 – R21 – R20 – R00
• Light brown combo: E43 – E42 – E42
When I was happy with the result, I trimmed the panel to 3 5/8"x 47/8" and I layered a 3.75"x5" glittery silver cardstock behind.For the sentiment, I white heat embossed one of the Inside Greetings Seasonstamp on some red cardstock and I created a strip. To complete the card, Iattached the penguin panel on an A2 piece of white cardstock using foam tapeand then I adhered the sentiment strip. And here's the finished result!
For my second inspiration, I went for a clean and simple look on kraftcardstock, that I especially love when I create winter cards.
I firstly stamped the 4Roly Poly Penguinsin the lover part of an A2 piece of kraft (thisone is Neenah Desert Storm Smooth), I recicled the masking pieces created forthe first card. I used a light brown ink, since I wanted a no-line look. Then Icolored the penguins using the Copics listed below.
• Penguins: T10 – T8 – T7 – T6 – T5
• Beak: Y38
• Red combo: R89 – R59 – R46 – R35
When I use the no-line technique, I always combine Polychromos Pencils too,because I need to better define the edges and reinforce some shadows. I tooksome coordinated greys and red to do that. I also took a white pencil to addwhite onto the body of the penguins and some of the accessories.
I then decided to add a big sentiment on the upper part: I used the big"Greetings" word which comes from the previously released Season'sGreetings stamp set, while the word "sending" is from Festive Greetings stamp. I white heat embossed everything and then I also stamped somesnowflakes (which come form the Deck the Halls stamp) here and there to addsome interests. I trimmed the panel to 3 5/8" to 5.5" and I layered aslightly larger rosegold glitter cardstock behind. To complete the card, Iattached everything to an A2 white panel. And here's the second finishedresult!
For my last inspiration, I have to say I found a beautiful layout like this onPinterest, which was my main inspiration. So I decided to turn it into a card.
I took a 4 3/8" square panel and I drew 4 circles of 1,5". I createda mask for the "holes" and I carefully stamped the fourRoly Poly Penguinswithsome accessories, like the gift or the Christmas hats. I used a really lightink because i wanted a total no-line look, and as I said before I firsltycolored with the Copics listed below and then defined the edges with pencils.
• Penguins: 100 – W10 – W9 – W8 – W7 – W6
• Red combo: R59 – R46 – R29 – R43
• Pink combo: R21 – R20 – R00
• Backgrounds: G21 – B93 – RV95 – Y32
I then die cut the Merry Word from some silver glitter cardstock and I layeredtwo white die cuts behind to create depth. To complete the sentiment, I alsowhite heat embossed two black strips using the words included in the LazyChristmasstamp.To complete the card, I layered a 4,5"x4,5" silver glitter cardstockand a 5"x5" white panel too. And here's the finished result!
