It's a Penguin Party!!!

OMG - how cute are these guys???? Hmmm...if I were a penguin - I suppose this is how I would party - LOL!!! Here's a sneak peek of the new "Penguin Antics" set by Hanna Stamps being released this Friday, October 3rd. All of the penguins and the "penguin party" sentiment are from this set - the sentiments on the cards are from the "Things Hanna Would Say" set. This is a little twist on the 3X3 notecard set with matching box - instead of making square 3X3 cards - I used my scalloped circle nestibilities to make little scalloped circle cards that would fit in the 3X3 envies. I used the templates found on SCS here for my project - what great templates - big thanks to the gals who put these together - this was a fun little project!! All of my penguins were colored in with Copics. These penguins are so darn happy - they make me think of bright, fun colors - so I pulled paper out of this past year's Die Cuts with a View Summer Stack from JoAnn's for this set - which is why it all coordinates so well. The patterned paper on the cards, box and lining the envelopes is from this stack. All cardstock is from Archiver's - although I think it is actually Bazzill Basics cardstock. Here are some close-ups of the set so you can see these little guys better...


I hope you like it - I started with just my stamps, Copics, paper and cardstock thinking this was going to be an easy project - but it ended up really being quite the project - but I was pretty pleased with the end result. I hope to see you all at the Hanna Stamps Release Party this Thursday night from 9-11 PM over on SCS - it's gonna be a blast - and once again - don't forget about the super sweet blog candy being offered on all the design team blogs - just leave us a comment and you could win a brand new never before released Riley - WOO HOO!! Thanks for stopping by!!
