Dueling Darlings- January- Penguins

Terry S and LJ are the hostesses for the Dueling Darlings this month, and they have sent us kits with a theme of Penguins.  Oh, this was so fun!  I used much of the kit ....


 For the Dazzlers, Terry S sent us a fun kit featuring a Penguin set from Inky Antics.  I had a blast creating and coloring and trying to be creative!
  For this first card, I cut a strip from each DP 1/2" and 2 1/4" strips.  I ran cardstock through the Xyron and placed the strips across the background.  Yeah- used all of the Dp sent in the kit on the background!
  Thje image was colored using Copic markers. See the end of the blog post for the deets of the kit!

I would like to enmter this in the challenge at 2 Crafty Critter Crazies challenge. I used DP cut into paper strips for the background, so would like to enter into the Crafty Hazelnut's challenge- DP



 This is using a Sketch for the challenge at Try Stampin onTuesday .  I used a circle die and coloring using Copic markers.


  Yep, three cards from the kit.  This one, I colored the penguin using a darker penguin..... I like the lighter colors.

Darling penguins, all of them, no matter how colored! But I do like the contrast of the darker one against his background.

Wow, it's so nice to see how different you can make a card using the same image. I love the first one because the DP with angled stripes. Nice colouring job. Anyone who receives one of these cards will be tickled.

Wow...love them all! When I looked at the first card I thought you had used your own paper until I realized you created your own paper with strips....very clever!

Fun cards beautifully made Shelly - I really like your take on the first one, with the sun, 'tropical' drink and still sitting on the ice cube :)

What a great penguin! Though that looks like a chilly seat, lol - perfect design for our sketch, and very fun papers! Thanks so much for playing at TSOT!

Carol W said...

Donna said...

You really rocked this kit Shelly. I love that penguin image. he so cute. Your coloring is awesome. I wanted to get around to everyone's blog post but I'm going to have to wait until after I get home. Internet here is not reliable. I haven't been able to get on the campground's Internet yet. I'm using my phone as a hot spot and getting on through my phone. Anyway, all is well. I miss the group but knew that we'd be traveling more this year and that posting on the 15th would not always be possible. Sorry I missed this adorable kit!
