It's cold outside....


Do penguins feel the cold?  I just had to google it....and it would seem that they don't.  What a lucky duck, or whatever.  lol    For my card today, I've coloured up this adorable little Penguin from Dr Digi's House of Stamps.   I know that Christmas is over for this year, but winter isn't, and this little guy is sure to warm your heart....though not likely your toes!

After colouring with markers, I had a play with my Spellbinders Heirloom Ornaments die.  I've used the 'out of the box' technique for cutting the image, and then some other layers in behind.  A bit of greenery and a pretty bow adds a festive touch.  I'm getting a head start on my cards for next year.

For those that enjoy winter....have fun!  For the rest of us, stay warm and hope for an early spring!
