I am thrilled to be participating in the blog hop between My Favorite Things and Scrapbook Adhesives by 3L! I have loved these adorable penguins for some time and was so excited to get my hands on them! They are part of a set called, Penguins in Paradise. I used my Mini Misti and a bit of masking to create my scene. I colored the images using my Copic markers. I even gave the one little guy a sunburn! Doesn't the other penguin look a bit exasperated? Like he is thinking, "Why didn't he wear sunscreen?"
I kept the embellishments to a minimum. Just a few sequins (attached with DODZ™-mini) and some Donna Salazar Grungie Girl Twine. The image was adhered to the card using Crafty Foam Tape.
My second card uses these adorable soda bottle dies! I inked each one with Tim Holtz inks and spritzed them with water. I did the same to the background.
I stamped the sentiment from MFT's Soda Pop set and added that to the center bottle. I adhered a scattering of rhinestones and sequins using DODZ™-mini. I used Crafty Foam Tape to adhere the panel to the card.

Oh my goodness, that first card is fantastic! I adore the fact that the one has a bit of a sunburn and you are so right, the other has a classic exasperated look on his face. Love the humor and all the details you added to make the card a real stand out! The soda card is super fun, too. The bottles look great in those fun colors. But really, the penguins totally steal the show. :)
