Penguin Swings

Hello everyone!!  I'm here today to show you a card I made using a digital image from Whimsy Stamps.  Today I used "Penguin Swings".

Here are the step by step instruction on how I made my card.

step 1 - print out the digital image onto the cardstock of your choice.  I used cryogen cardstock.

step 2 - I am using Copic markers to color my image.  You can start by coloring in the nose and feet using YR18, YR16, YR14

step 3 - Then I color the penguin using some grey markers, C9, C7, C5

Step 4 - Then I color the dress and hat using RV19, RV17, RV14.

Step 5 - Using BG07, BG05, BG02 I color in the band on the hat

Step 6 - Next I color the swing using E27, E25, E23, E21

Step 7 - Using a die I cut out my colored image and using a slightly larger die, cut out the mat for behind the image.

Step 8 - Assemble all pieces for the card and lay them out like you want them. The pieces that I used are as follows: card base 6x6, pink CS 5 7/8 x 5 7/8, 2 strips ( I used double sided CS) 2 x 5, 2 white CS 2 1/4 x 5 1/4. Adhere all pieces to card base.

Step 9 - Attach all pieces to the card base, adhere some pearls to the corners, a sentiment and a bow....

Sorry for a few blurry pictures, but my camera isn't working properly.....
