You're the Coolest

Yesterday afternoon I was working on another project and ended up discarding the card base because the color and pattern just didn't work with what I was going for. Later that evening I had more time to stamp and so I decided to try the latest Freshly Made Sketch and saw that card base just sitting there and I figured I'd try and make it work. Well, work it did! I love it when things work out like that :)

I used a set from MFT called Penguins in Paradise to create my card. I'm not a fan of tropical weather at all, anything above 70 degrees is way too warm for me, but I adore penguins and this set is just too cute!

I colored in the penguin and palm tree with copics and cut out a circle using the MFT Zig Zag Stitch Circle dies. I adhered the images to the circle and the sentiment banner was created using MFT Blueprints and it was stamped in Pumpkin Pie ink.

Thanks for stopping by!

  3. Super cute card. Love how bright and cheery it is. I of course would take tropical heat any day and everyday of the year. I mention that because I know you're a cold weather fan.. and we here in WI are struggling to get above zero. Any ways Happy Valentine's Day ♥
