CAS Christmas November Challenge - sweet winter wishes

Hi everyone,

This is the last challenge of the year for CAS Christmas Challenge, and the challenge for this month is:


Here's my card.



[How I made the card]

1. Die-cut the front panel with a frame from white cardstock.

2. Stamped the penguins and the ice floes on the front panel and masked them. 

3. Stenciled very lightly over the stamped (and masked) images.

4. Stamped another set of penguins and ice floes and die-cut them.

5. Pencil colored the penguins, the ice floes, and added Aqua Shimmer & Crystal Glaze to them.

6. Heat-embossed the sentiment with glitter embossing powder.

7. Popped up the die-cut penguins and ice floes on the front panel.

8. Glued the entire front panel onto the card base.

  2. Love the way you've added movement to your panel - floes beautifully, Hideko, no worries about them getting jammed up! Thought they may need a warm fire to thaw out! SO cute!

  12. Oh these penguins are so adorably sweet, Hideko. Super job masking and stencilling. Love the frame you used… tried to purchase it at RC during their BF/CM 30% off sale, but it’s sold out. 😕
