SC188 Candy Corn Penguin

Photo Details

Poster: clee1953

Whew! This one looks simple enough now that it's finished, but I couldn't get the triangle sections to work with various stamps and patterned papers until I finally came up with this combo.

The penguin by Imaginisce was stamped 3 times so I could paper-piece his little swim trunks. He's going to a masquerade party dressed as candy corn, and he didn't even have to wear a costume for the white part of the candy!
I drew and cut out his little mask, edged it in silver glitter gel pen (Sakura) and glued it to a bit of wire.
He and the mask are popped up on foam tape over corner-punched orange c/s over black c/s. The black print paper is DCWV and the orange c/s triangles were stamped with Making Memories foam stamps.

I'm finally getting a chance to catch up on looking at Challenge Galleries, and this card is TOO CUTE. He's one of my favorite images, and now I can see him as CANDY CANE Penguin for Christmas. Hmmm... what else can he be???

Life may not be the party we hoped for, but while we're here we might as well dance.
