I LOVE these penguins! And truth be told, I did use one for a tag in November... but I used a friend's set. Now I have my own! I also used new dies from Winnie and Walter that very slowly hitchhiked their way from their warehouse after a Black Friday sale.
I wanted my design clean and graphic, so instead of defined hills, I went with a straight diagonal for my slope. I did feel the need to add a bit of shadow under my snowboarder dude. He's coloured with Zig markers.
I'm entering this into the Simon Says Stamp Wednesday challenge, Winter Birthday.
The current challenge continues until January 25th, and we would love you to join us!
Supplies: white & blue cardstock, Bienfang vellum bristol, MFT Chill Wishes stamp & die, MFT black licorice ink, Zig clean colour real brush markers, watercolour pencil, Winnie & Walter Katharine dies, fun foam
These little guys crack me up. That's pretty much the expression I'd have on my face if I was in his position. :D Gorgeous shading. You rock those Zigs. :)
ReplyDeleteThis is brilliant, Lindsey - just look at the expression on his face! Jo x
