Merry Monday Christmas Card Challenge #166

We have a new challenge for you today over at Merry Monday Christmas Card Challenge. It’s Wendy's Challenge this week – Create a Christmas card with a penguin on it. 

With so much going on for summer we like extend Merry Monday two weeks so you have until Jul 19th to link up.


I struggled with this card, I have penguins, I have more supplies then I need but... this CAS card took me FOREVER and I though it was done then looked at it the next day and added the sequins. Crazy business that.


Wintery papers - Check, Layers - Check, Foam tape for sentiment and penguin - Check, Stitched Rectangles : ) - Check. I finished with added a little hat, beak and feet colour and sequins.


Supplies: White stock, Designer Paper - Echo Park, Cosmo Cricket - Jolly Days, sequins.



The Merry Monday Design team has posted some great cards over on the challenge blog for inspiration. Stop by, play along and some comments.


Thanks for visiting,
Nina

    Just love your tall penguin and the mix of patterns, Nina! And the black sequins are a nice touch! I'm glad I'm not the only one to go adding things after a card is done... Thanks for the inspiration at Merry Monday!
