P...P...Pick Up a Penguin

Do they still make Penguin chocolate bars??? I couldn't resist that title for this post...as I've used a cute little Digistamp Boutique penguin called 'Waddle Francis' on today's card. I coloured him with watercolour pencils, to match the colours of the My Mind's Eye 'Countdown to Christmas' papers. I thought I'd try a different (for me) shape of easel card...using just one normal square card blank with the image popping up above the fold, and I quite like it...certainly quicker to make than a traditional easel card.  I used a Penny Black sentiment popped up on 3D foam pads to hold the card up, and added a few pieces of Card Candi, and a piece of ribbon from my stash.
