EDITED: Following a few requests I've updated this post including directions below to make this card. There's no blog project this morning as I simply wanted to wish you a merry Christmas and a peaceful 2022. Thank you to you, my blog followers, customers and friends for all your support in 2021, I cannot tell you how much you are appreciated. Please enjoy this final card using the retiring Happy Holly-Days Stamp Set. I couldn't resist including a little new product sneak peek... it is ... VIEW POST
Penguin Weather On The Way
It's time to get out the thermals. All our snow has been washed away and it looks like it will be a green Christmas. Not that I'll want to go out, it's getting much colder and I'm definitely a warm weather person. Later today with the wind it's going to feel like minus 17C! Brrr, much to cold for me. So I'll take it as a sign that I'm meant to stay home and play. Yesterday I took delivery of a box of goodies from the new January to June 2022 Mini Catalogue so I have sneak peek projects to ...

Playing With Another Penguin
When I'm papercrafting I often sit down with no particular idea in mind. If I'm looking for inspiration it may be as simple as picking up a stamp set and starting to stamp. Once I've completed one step, the next one seems to come naturally. My strategy is to just keep playing and see where the journey takes me. That doesn't mean I do something and then never change my mind. It happens. However any unused pieces will be set aside and end up on another project later. I must admit though ... VIEW POST

Chick Lovers Here’s Two Ideas In One!
After my 24 hour card making marathon over the weekend I sat down to make a quick gift tag today. This idea using the Hey Birthday Chick Stamp Set and coordinating Birthday Chick Dies came together really easily. However as I was working it occurred to me it was essentially another card, albeit a very small one. So before the final assembly I just had to see what it would look like as a full-sized card, and I love that too. But first let's look at the tag... BIRTHDAY CHICK SCENE This ... VIEW POST
Penguin Place Plus 23 Other Cards Completed
If you saw my blog posts over the past couple of days, or follow me on Facebook, you'll know I've been working on a personal challenge. Yesterday was World Card Making Day and as in previous years I decided to attempt another 24 hour challenge. This where I challenge myself to design and make from scratch, 24 cards in a single 24 hour period. The cards also have to be decorated inside and have coordinating envelopes, so no skimping! I started at 6pm on Friday, managed about 5 hours sleep ... VIEW POST
