1-2-3 Skunkie

I can't say this card was fun to create! It was a bear! The colors were very hard for me to work with. Luckily, I didn't give up! The card size is 5 1/2 by 4 1/4. It has a few layers of CS and I used the SU top note die as the main panel. The colors are cameo coral, so saffron and orchid opulence. The flower is a dollar tree punch. I used oval nestabilities, Swiss dots CB folder and organza ribbon. I added a little sponging around the edges and some piercing. TFL!! ~LoriThis card was made for a double challenge on SCS they can be found HERE http://www.splitcoaststampers.com/forums/showthread.php?p=12459833&posted=1#post12459833 and HERE http://www.splitcoaststampers.com/forums/showthread.php?t=405901&page=2

TEENY PENGUIN

This little guy was created for a challenge SCS is hosting for a short time through the holiday. The challenge can be found here http://www.splitcoaststampers.com/forums/showthread.php?t=405709

I love this teeny penguin! He measures 1 1/2 by 4 1/4. This is the first card I've made this size. I'll definitely plan to make more sometime! This size will make great bookmarks, tree ornaments and probably a score of other things if someone feels like sitting and thinking long enough!! :)
Now, I'll try to explain the put together process and make sense doing it!!
(1.) Start with black CS cut to 1 1/2 by 4 1/4. (2.) Cut and layer white CS. (3.) Adhere. (4.) Punch out head with a large circle punch. (5.) The circle needs to hang over the sides of the card. (6) Punch out 3 flowers (2 for feet and 1 for beak) using looks like spring punch. Use the scalloped looking flowers for the feet and the pointy flower for the beak . Do not cut these flowers. (7) Apply adhesive to half of each flower and adhere. (8.) Next, punch small circle then punch around the small circle with the 3/4 inch circle punch to create the eye. (9.) Adhere to large circle (the head). (10.) Adhere head to white CS with pop dot. (11.) Cut a narrow strip of black CS adhere to white . (12.) Cut another narrow strip to make bow tie ( fold both sides of black CS to the middle add adhesive adhere to black CS. Add rhinestone to bow and a sentiment and that should be it! Presto. You should have a CUTE penguin creation!!
