Playful Penguins Holiday Cards

Hello Crafty Friends, Heejung Hunsberger here! I'm thrilled to be returning as a guest designer for Spellbinders this month. If you'd like to get to know me better, you can visit my blog or follow me on Instagram. Additionally, I have a YouTube channel where I regularly post video tutorials. Today, I’m sharing three Winter Holiday cards featuring the Let It Snow Collection by Simon Hurley.

Warm Wishes Cards

Playful Penguins Holiday Cards, S4-1380, S5-651, S5-645, SCS-348, S5-654 First, I die-cut the Starshine Background die from the Holiday Collection on waterfall card stock. Then, I die-cut the Frozen Flurries die from the Let It Snow Collection on white glitter card stock, which is one of them from the Handmade Holiday Pack. Playful Penguins Holiday Cards, S4-1380, S5-651, S5-645, SCS-348, S5-654 I made the snow slopes by die-cutting the Color Block Scenic Scape die. I used white and black card stock to die-cut the Penguins with the Playful Penguins die. Finally, I die-cut the handwritten Holiday die using red and white card stock.

Dancing Penguin Christmas Card

Playful Penguins Holiday Cards, S4-1380, S5-652, SCSP-002, S5-654, T034, T045 To create the card frame, I used the Emerald Cut Labels and Tag Die on matted Silver Metallic Card Stock. Playful Penguins Holiday Cards, S4-1380, S5-652, SCSP-002, S5-654, T034, T045 Next, I embossed the Frozen Flurries Die with an embossing pad instead of die-cutting it and then colored light blue with a blending brush on the embossed paper. Playful Penguins Holiday Cards, S4-1380, S5-652, SCSP-002, S5-654, T034, T045 I die-cut three penguins wearing sweaters and decorated them with accessories. I finished up with the Handwritten Holiday Die for the sentiments.

Snowflake Christmas Card

Playful Penguins Holiday Cards, S5-652, S5-651,BP-199 First, I blended blue and green ink on A2 size white card stock and sprayed water over it. Then, I die-cut the Frozen Flurries on white card stock and attached it to the color-blended panel. Playful Penguins Holiday Cards, S5-652, S5-651,BP-199 Also, I blended blue and green colors onto white cardstock, then die-cut a snowflake from the Layering Snowflakes die set using the blended cardstock & white glitter cardstock. Playful Penguins Holiday Cards, S5-652, S5-651,BP-199 I attached the snowflake with foam stickers in the center of the card and hot foiled the sentiments from the mistletoe Greeting Press plate onto red card stock.
