For this week’s Mail It Monday, I have this darling Friends Forever Penguin Card to share. Last week Close To My Heart debuted the 5 project bundles that are exclusively for their National Scrapbooking Day Celebration. I shared all the details HERE.
I immediately loved the adorable Little Penguins Stamp Set that is part of the Little Penguins Mini Album Kit.
Look at how adorable these cutie are! The variety of the penguins and all the additional icons and sentiments that come with this set make it so irresistible. I couldn’t wait to play with it. For my first project I decided to pair the set with the fun *NEW* glossy UV Coated Cardstock.
I used another simple design to create the card. Here is the Card Sketch if you’d like to use it too.
Here is a complete listing of the supplies I used to create this card.
STAMPS
- Little Penguin (CC3222)
INKS
- Intense Black (Z4189)
- Pale Pink TriBlend Marker (Z2496)
- Burnt Orange TriBlend Marker (Z2517)
PAPERS
- Carnival Coated Cardstock (CC32217)
- Black Cardstock (X6047)

ACCESSORIES

As you can see I used a lot of sparkle and shine with my card. It felt like it was appropriate since I was using the princess and ballerina penguins! Using the sparkle from the Shimmer Trim and the Stickles was a perfect pairing with the glossy shine of the special cardstock.
I plan to have some additional samples created with this darling stamp set. Until then, I hope you enjoy today’s Forever Friends Penguin Card.
