Wow! Another month flown by already!! Welcome to our new challenge at Crafty Hazelnut's Christmas Challenge Extra. As always, we are a month-long, anything (Christmas-related) goes challenge and we are sponsored by Bugaboo Stamps. The winner will receive 7 images of their choice!! And boy, does Bugaboo have some adorable images to choose from. For my card, I chose to use this adorable little penguin. Isn't he so cute?
This sketch is so fun and is perfect for using up some scraps; I didn't even have to cut the red strip except for length. Each of the patterned papers were scraps and the banner was cut from a piece of white scrap. The banner was popped up with foam dots and the penguin was popped up with foam tape to create some different levels of dimension. I just love how this card turned out!!
Supplies:
Stamps: Bugaboo Stamps "Little Penguin Winter-Skate" digi; Verve "Peace On Earth" sentiment
Dies: Spellbinders banner; the snowflakes are from Whimsy Stamps (but a friend cut it out and sent it to me along with a bunch of others--thanks Gail!)

Your card is so pretty Heather. It certainly is a great sketch for scraps. I think I shall be making a few of these. I love your border die and the little penguin is so sweet. Barbxx

This is adorable and so clever how you used the die so the penguin skates across it.
