Hello Crafty Friends! I'm on the Sunny Studio Stamps blog today and I am sharing a fun postcard style card featuring the adorable penguins from the Penguin Pair set. I am completely obsessed with postage and postcard style cards and had to create one with this short stack of cuties and a customized sentiment using the Sydney Alphabet Dies. So let's get started.
I stamped the penguins from the Penguin Pair Stamp and an envelope from the Big Bunny Stamp sets onto a piece of Neenah Solar White 110 lb cardstock with Memento Tuxedo Black ink and used the coordinating Penguin Pair Dies and Big Bunny Dies to diecut them out. I colored the images with Copic markers and accented with a white gel pen.
COPIC COLORS:
Penguins: T3/4/5/6/7, W00/0/1, Y38 YR04, R000/20
Heart: R14/24/27/29
Envelope: C1, R14/24/29
For the background, I used the Diagonal & Straight Stripes Stencils and some Candied Apple Distress ink to create a striped border on a piece of Bristol Smooth cardstock. I took another piece of white cardstock and lightly ink blended some Saltwater Taffy Distress Oxide ink onto the edges. I trimmed a bit off the edges of the pink panel and adhered the two panels together.
For the sentiment, I stamped the "Sending Love &" sentiment from the Big Bunny Stamp set directly onto the pink panel with Memento Tuxedo Black ink. I used the Sydney Alphnabet Dies to diecut the PAPER HUGS letters 2 times out of red cardstock. I layered and adhered the letters to each other and then onto the postcard. I accented the letters with a white gel pen. I used a black pen to draw in the line and dots to create a separation of the left and right side of the postcard.
I used the Gift Card Envelopes Dies to diecut two stamps and the LOVE and XOXO letters out of white, red and silver cardstock. I adhered them to the upper right corner of my postcard. I adhered the penguins to the panel with foam tape for a bit of dimension and interest. The panel was adhered to a white A2 cardbase (5.5" x 4.25").
