Christmas in July #31 - Whimsy Stamps Penguins Decorate the Tree

Hello!

I'm back for day 31 of my personal #christmasinjuly2025 cardmaking challenge. I used products from Whimsy Stamps for my card today.

I printed the adorable penguin image from the Whimsy Stamps Penguins Decorate the Tree digital stamp onto white cardstock using my Epson EcoTank printer. I also printed the "Merry Christmas" sentiment from the Whimsy Stamps Penguin Christmas Sentiments 1 digital set.

I used the Kat Scrappiness Wonky Wavy Stitched Rectangle dies to cut around the image using my Sizzix Big Shot and magic mat. I fussy cut around the sentiment with my scissors.

I then colored it with my Prismacolor colored pencils. Specific colors are below:

• White: 20% Warm Grey, 10% Warm Grey, and White

• Black: Black, 90% Warm Grey, and 70% Warm Grey

• Red: Raspberry, Pomegranate, and Magenta

• Green: Cobalt Turquoise, Peacock Green, and Grass Green

• Yellow: Sunburst Yellow, Canary Yellow, and Deco Yellow

• Silver: 30% Cool Grey, 20% Cool Grey, and 10% Cool Grey

• Orange: Pumpkin Orange, Mineral Orange, and Yellowed Orange

I accented the tops of the ornaments with a Clear Star Gelly Roll pen.

I glued the panel to a white A2 card base using Art Glitter Glue and then added the sentiment to the top right corner.

That's it! I hope you enjoyed the card and are inspired to create.

I also want to invite you to join me in my cardmaking challenge over on my Facebook page. Today is the last day to enter. See the pinned post at the top of my page. I will announce the winner in the pinned post tomorrow.

I made it to the end of my challenge and made/shared a Christmas card each day in July! Here is a fun group shot of all of the cards.

Happy crafting!
