Penguin's First Snow

Somewhere along the way, this cute little penguin hopped in my shopping card and has been waiting to be colored. Penguin's First Snow is made by Whiff of Joy and is a small stamp, a little less than 3" tall. 

 

So when I colored him, I went ahead and fussy cut him out knowing I wanted to add a background to help make him big enough for the card.  

I found a couple of random sheets in my stash that coordinated well with the toboggan hat and strategically cut the rectangle shape for the card front.  The other piece had 4 squares for journaling - the one with the snowflake was perfect for his size.  I rounded the corners and secured the snowflake paper to the card base then added foam squares to the back of the cut out penguin and added him in front of the snowflake. 

Lastly I added the fishtail cut Christmas sentiment at an angle above the image.  Another card ready for my Christmas Stash 2023.
