My granddaughter has a special book about Grandpas that she wants her grandpa to read to her all of the time. One of the pages, her favorite btw, is a picture of two penguins. That would be the reason I bought this stamp when it was on sale a couple of weeks ago. I love this little stamp and die set! It is simple and so easy to make a great card.
I used silver pigment ink to blend an edge around the entire card panel after I had embossed it and left the middle black. Afterward, I used some clear embossing powder to accentuate the middle of the card panel. It was just enough of a "spotlight" to enhance the the penguins, being that they are the only focal point on the card. I used some snowflake sequins on the first one and then thought I'd give a shaker card a go. I love both versions. I cut the circle out of the base with the fine circle rings largest die. Put a piece of vellum behind it and used some craft foam to lift it up adhering it to the card base. Inside the circle window, I used more of the snowflake sequins and some fine glitter. I sealed it to the base and added the Penguins and sentiment.
