Pengi Texty Tree

 

For this month's NZ cardswap group we had to make an unusual christmas card & tags.  For the unusual I chose torn edges, a penguin and a texty undecorated tree.

The edges of the  patterned paper are torn,  coloured and edged with DI.  The tree is digital, printed, rubbed over with DI and misted with gold interference.  The pengi is a digital image coloured with Copics. Sentiment stamp is coloured with Copics and the hearts have Stickles.

Penguin digi: Bugaboo 

Tree digi: Vera Lane

Tag dies: various dies, stamps

Also: Patterned paper, gold interference mist, Copics, white pen

A bit of stencilling and smooshing, some diecutting and a little bit of shiny.   I made the body of the bird (diecut unbranded) from snippets of smooshed card, and the breast & berries are coloured with Copics.  DI's stencilled (Rosies stencil) and black pen used for eye, with Glossy Accents on the berries.  I left it without a sentiment so I could add whatever I need later ...
