Little Penguins…a quick release!

Published by Shel9999 at 10:52 am under C.C. Designs, My Designs

Good morning! How is everybody today?

I have some news from All That Scraps! Winter Playtime and Little Penguins were scheduled to be released by C.C. Designs on Dec. 7, BUT they’re available now…a week early!

I think the penguins are every bit as cute as Lucky and Lulu (but, truth be told, my heart still belongs to Lucky)! In this set, the two penguins shown above are separate stamps. I just thought they’d be cute together so I stamped the boy, masked him, then stamped the girl. I colored them with Copics, then added the faux stitching.

The patterned paper is by Piggy Tales–Peter, Peter, Pumpkin Eater collection. (I used it here on my owl card too.) I love it! It has brown, after all!

On all the eyes, I like to add shine with a black 3-d gel pen. If I had a mustard colored pen, I’d do the same on the penguin’s beak. It’s just a little detail that I feel adds a lot.

Thanks so much for stopping by! Enjoy your Saturday! And, if you’re interested, tomorrow is the last day to apply for the All That Scraps Design Team!! (Details here.)
