Chilly penguin

Here's another Christmas card. I thought I would try a round card for a change. The bauble ring was cut with my Silhouette cutter, using a design from the Silhouette shop and textured, glossy paper. The image is a Squiggle Stamps digi, which I coloured with distress ink. I cut out the image and used some foam tape to adhere it to a scalloped nestie, which I had given a frosty glaze using distressing powder. The sentiment is stamped on another scalloped circle. The pearls were made using a Viva Perlen Pen.


I'd like to enter this card into the following challenges:
Squiggle Stamps – Christmas Creations
Totally Gorjuss – Christmas in July
Jingle Belles – Shape up for the Holidays
Christmas Cards All Year Round – 4/9 (ribbon, stamping, textured paper, stripes)
Winter Wonderland – White on White (only image to be coloured)
Stamping with the Dragon – Red, green, white
