Amanda Jayne Designs - Penguin Couple

 Merry Christmas Everyone

For this post I'm sharing the last of my cards for Amanda Jayne Designs as my term as a Design Team member has sadly comes to an end. I have one more item to share tomorrow, then I'm off to pastures new for 2025. So watch this space! 

So for today's card I have created a pretty blue Christmas card using the 'Penguin Couple' digi set. The set contains a generous black outline stamp to colour yourself and a pre-coloured version, which is great if you need a quick card before the big day. I used Copic pens to colour with. I hope you like it. x

FYI - Amanda has lots of  lovely digi stamp, papers and sentiments in her Etsy shop, along with some pre-coloured images and papers. Here is the link to the Amanda Jayne Designs Etsy Store to check out all the digi stamps and papers.

Here's What I Did 

I covered the front of a 5" x 7" card front with some pretty blue snow effect paper. Next I imported the cute penguin couple into my software (FYI I used MS Publisher) and added my own Christmas sentiment, everything was then resized to fit my project. 

The image and sentiment were printed onto colouring cardstock and cut with a label die. The image was coloured with Copic pens. The penguins were printed out again onto masking paper, and fussy cut out. The mask was placed over the image and blue distress ink was applied around it. The mask was removed once everything was dry; then mounted onto blue card cut using a slightly larger label die. Funky foam was added to the back to raise it up a little. The finished topper was added to the front of the card. 

To complete the card, I added glitter to the hats and snow, and a few pearls to the bottom of the card.
