Penguin Christmas Card

Craft shop toppers can be expensive. These toppers are actually Christmas 3D gift tags.  They cost £1 for a pack of eighteen from a local market. The designs are really cute and include snowmen, santas, penguins etc.Picture 089 All I have done is take the back off the tag and trimmed it ever so slightly, then mat and layered it on blue, gold and a patterned Let It Snow paper.

I have added a pom pom and a gem holly berry to his hat, a couple of punchie snow flakes and my own doodles on the plain blue paper.

    I love all your layering with mats and thought the doodled one was actually patten.

    I also thought the doodled one was actually the paper. Another gorgeous creation.

    You are so clever spying these little things to create a big terrific card. I love how you also add little touches like the pompom.

Thank you for wanting to leave a comment. I HATE verification and apologise for the extra bother it causes, however, if I don't have it I get all sorts of dubious spam added and the comments would be bogged down utter ***p!

Occasionally I get comments on posts from several years ago, again, I have to apologise, copies of TEMPLATES etc. that I once offered are now NO LONGER AVAILABLE, when my last computer died, I lost everything and decided not to replace any them.
