Sledding Penguins

This card is 4 1/4"x5 1/2." I used a pre-made card for the card base, then ran it through my Cuttlebug with the Snowflakes embossing folder. I hand cut my snowbanks and adhered them to the card base. The penguins are a Fiskars punch. I punched them each three times, from the glittery black, shimmery blue and white cardstocks. I then trimmed the blue and white ones to get the pieces I wanted and I pieced them together. I cut the sled from Jolly Holidays, cutting off the snowman that is supposed to be sitting on it. The penguin on the hill is adhered to the card with pop-dots for some dimension. I stamped my sentiment and used some shimmery blue embossing powder to heat emboss it. I used Accent Essentials to cut all the snowflakes, then covered them with waterfall Stickles to make them stand out a little more from the background.

I made this card for the following challenges:

• Celebrate the Occasion: Christmas, no green


• Exploring Cricut: sled or sleigh


• Scraptastic Mondays: snowman or snowflake
