Penguin Palace Stamps challenge#1

A Friendship Card Inspiration from Candice

Sharon Y.Leave a comment

Happy Friday crafty friends! I’d like to remind all that we are having our first ever Penguin Palace Challenge over on our PP Challenge Blog. Enter before 13th May for a chance to win a $25 Gift Certificate to our store!

Today Candice have for us a beautiful friendship card inspiration. She used the Twist-n-Pop Surprise Stand-Alone die to create this fun interactive card.

She created two mini-scenes on each of the rectangle die cut panels by stamping, masking, some of the adorable critters from the My BFF stamp set. She ink blended the background using Squeezed Lemonade, Kitsch Flamingo, and Milled Lavender Distress Oxide Inks, and then removed the masks to add some copic coloring.

She ink blended the side decorative panels with the same distress oxide inks. These colors match perfectly to this month’s Color Palette Inspiration for our Monthly Challenge!

To finish off, she added two tabs with sentiments from the My BFF stamp set. I love the white highlights she added to the stamped images to make them pop! The coolest thing is that this pop-up card folds flat and fits into a 6 x 6″ envelope for mailing!

Thank you so much for this super delightful inspiration Candice!

Now is your turn, don’t forget to upload your entry on our Challenge Blog and your social media by 13th May and hashtag using #penguinpalaceprojects!

Thanks for stopping by, have a wonderful weekend!

A Sweet Encouragement Shaker Card With Jo!

Sharon Y.Leave a comment

Hi everyone, happy Wednesday! Jo is back to share a super sweet card with us today! You can watch her video tutorial below or over on our YouTube Channel!

Jo combined images from My BFF, The Sweetest Truck, and the Bee Happy stamp sets.

To create her shaker window, she used both the Dots Meet Dashes Large Rectangles Overlays and the Dots Meet Dashes Small Rectangles Overlays.

I really love the look of the grassy fields. She used tiny rainbows as her shaker elements which matches perfectly with the smiley rainbow from the My BFF stamp set.

The sentiments, “Tomorrow will be a good day” and “I have your back” were both from the My BFF stamp set. Thank you Jo! This scene is so amazing!

Thanks for stopping by, have a great day!

A Colorful Interactive Friendship Card by Ashley!

Sharon Y.1 Comment

Hello crafty friends! Ashley is back today to share a beautiful friendship card featuring the My BFF stamps set and coordinating Penguin Perfect Cuts! Check out her full video tutorial HERE!

I love the pinkish inked background that Ashley had created. She used Distress Oxide inks in Picked Raspberry and Spun Sugar, with a cloudy stencil. For the hillside grassy fields, she used Distress Oxide inks in Lucky Clover and Twisted Citron, together with a grassy stencil. She also used the largest die from the Dots Meets Dashes Large Rectangle Overlays stand-alone die for the boarder detail.

All of the images are from the My BFF stamp set, and were colored with Copic markers. See how some of the images from the set can be used as clouds as well as leaf clusters? I can’t get enough of these cute smiley faces!

I love that she added a wavy slider channel for the kitty in the trolley to glide across the hillside!

She stamped out the sentiment “Thank you for being a great friend” from the set in Versafine Onyx Black ink.

Finally she splattered some sequins to add some extra sparkle to this dreamy scene!

Thank you so much Ashley! This scene is just full of fun and happiness!

A Heart Warming Friendship Card with Vera!

Hi everyone! Vera is back with us to share her beautiful friendship card!

Vera’s card features our My BFF stamp set and coordinating dies from our latest release. I love how she made photo frames to house each group of the critters. They really make a nice composition for the card!

Her background was blended with Distress Oxide Inks, and die cut with the largest die from Dots Meet Dashes Large Rectangle Overlays. You can see the elegant boarder detail close up in the above photo!

I love that she put the kitty trio in the first frame, a pair of bunnies in the second and another pair of kitties in the third, they really tie in the friendship theme of the card!

Besides stamping out the “Best”, “Friend”, and “Forever” on the frames, she also added her own scripty sentiments which compliment the friendship theme.

She added a few sequins to finish off her card with a little extra sparkle!

Thank you so much Vera for sharing this amazingly gorgeous card with us today!

Thanks for visiting, take care and stay safe!
