Penguin Nutcracker (Guest Designer)

This card was designed and made by my lovely little elf, my daughter Angeline.  Angeline is seven and loves to craft.  She loves stamping and coloring.  She's even woken me up on the weekends asking me to stamp a few images for her 'cause she wants to color them.   

Angeline made this card for her teacher.   She had stamped, colored and cut out the nutcracker a few weeks back.  She wanted to use the nutcracker in her card.  She also liked these penguins,  I had made a card during a card class hosted by my Stampin' Up demo Chris Galbraith.   So we married the two ideas and here's the result. 



And here's a picture of Angeline with the card as it's hanging in her teacher's classroom. 





Supplies: 
Stamps: Recollections (Nutcracker), Stampin Up (Serene Snowflakes)
Ink: Stampin' Up (Basic Black Classic Ink and White Craft Ink)
Coloring: Zig markers
Paper: Stampin' Up Cardstock (Whisper White, Marina Mist, Basic Black, Pumpkin Pie)
Tools: Stampin' Up (Owl punch)
Misc: White Embossing Powder 

Technique Highlight:
The Penguins were made using the Stampin' Up Owl punch.  The ears and the feed of the owl were trimmed off.
