Penguin with Christmas Gift

 Hello!  Penguins are such happy birds, especially when dressed up for Christmas.  I water colored this Di's Digi with Distress Inks and Water Color Pencils after printing on Watercolor Paper.  I added some Sparkle Stickles to his Hat and Sparkles with Clear Star Pen to his Scarf and Bow on the gift.  Instead of using a sentiment I simply wrote Joy on the tag. The Stripe Paper is from American Crafts Hollyday Pad and Red CS is from stash.

Happy Penguin with a Gift

I have a really big Penguin to share today....he is the big focus of my card.  I normally would print a smaller version of this digi from Di's Digis that I had in my files but I decided to have him fill the card....after all he is for a challenge to use a penguin.  I colored the image with Copics and added some "Fur" to his hat with Stickles and stripes to his scarf with a Glaze pen. There is sparkle to the ribbon and fringe made with Clear Star pen but you know how hard that is to photograph and be able to see.  The Pattern Paper is from American crafts Hollyday pad as well as the sentiment which was printed on the margin of the paper.
