I stamped & colored in parts of the penguin, die cut the circle, stamped & embossed the sentiment. It was tricky stamping & embossing the snowflakes but since I had no snowflake dies & certainly didn't want to fussy cut them, I stamped & embossed right on the paper. There are stray flecks of EP but I like them since it adds to the feel of "snowing." Challenges: colormyheartcolordare.blogspot.com (#238, peacock, willow & white daisy); www.happylittlestampers.com (April Christmas, anything goes with optional twist of embossing); atlanticheartschallenge.blogspot.ca (sketch 207 although I eliminated the 3 small elements at the left since the card already seemed busy enough); and www.retrorubberchallengeblog.com (RRCB60, baby critters, with stamps from 2015 & 200. TFL!

I love this little penguin and he looks quite comfortable surrounded by snowflakes. I would never have imagined this color challenge to be a christmas card but you did, Adorable and fun card.
What an adorable little baby penguin, so very sweet, all bundled up enjoying the snow flakes falling.
Thank you for playing along with us at RETRO RUBBER, hope you join us again next time.
Hugs,

I love your color scheme for this adorable card. That tone on tone polkadot background and that sparkly strip of glitter paper are a wonderful setting for that little penguin. Thanks so much for playing with us at Happy Little Stampers April Charitmas Challenge.
This is a wonderful combination of two of my favorite challenges and as a DT member of both I want to thank you for sharing this adorable card with us at Color My Heart Color Dare and Atlantic Hearts Sketch Challenge blogs. Your penguin is so stinkin' cute! Marie
