Sunny Studio Plaid and Penguins Holiday Card

Hello there! I'm sharing a playful holiday card featuring a stenciled plaid frame with a few of the Roly Poly Penguins peeking out.  I created the plaid pattern for the frame with a stencil. This stencil is part of a set of two which includes the Straight Stripes and Diagonal Stripes. I used the Diagonal Stripes stencil for this card. 


Here are the Sunny Studio Supplies I used to create this card:

Diagonal Stripes Stencil - To create a plaid pattern, I stenciled the stripes with light green ink onto an A2 size white card stock panel. I then turned the stencil so the stripes were going in the opposite direction and stenciled the panel again with the same green ink. After stenciling, I sprayed the panel with Cracked Pistachio Distress Spritz which gives it a speckled, shimmery finish. 

Stitched Ovals dies - I used the second largest die in the set to create the window in the plaid panel. 

Roly Poly Penguins stamp set and coordinating dies - For the penguin and candy cane images. 

Season's Greetings stamp set and coordinating dies - For the pine sprig and berries images. 

Inside Greetings Seasons stamp set - For the stamped sentiment.

Snowflake Circle Frame dies - For the little die cut snowflake and star embellishments. 


I started this design with a white A2 card base. In the center of the card front, I applied the same light green ink I used for the stenciling - Catherine Pooler Wintergreen. I then adhered the plaid frame with foam tape so it would be popped up. I tucked the penguins slightly under the frame edge so they would look to be peeking out. I left an open space to stamp the sentiment directly onto the background. I added the pine, berries, and snowflakes to finish. 

Copic colors used to color the penguins and their accessories: black & shading on white areas - N0, N2, N4, N6, N8; orange - YR12, YR16; red & pink - R00, R20, R21, R22, R34, R27; green - G20, G24, G28
