Hello and happy new year crafty friends! We hope you’ve enjoyed the holiday season and are ready for 2024!
We LOVED seeing your sketch-inspired projects over the past month. Unfortunately, we didn’t have quite enough participants to declare a winner, but we really want to thank you so much for participating in Challenges #31 & 32.
Now, onto Penguin Palace Challenge #33! Our theme this month is circles! You can interpret this however you like — using a radial pattern, the stencils 360, circle diecuts, anything and everything circles! Don’t forget to link your projects featuring Penguin Palace stamps below for your chance to win a $25 gift card!
I still had all my holiday stamps out and challenged myself to use them to create a non-holiday card. I used several stamps from the Minimalist Christmas Trees stamp set and varying shades of teal to create a circular pattern stemming from the center point. I stamped and white heat-embossed the “happy birthday” sentiment from Enchanting Paris on teal cardstock and cut it out with a circle die. I used a die one size larger to create a matte using glitter paper.
Next, I adhered my sentiment circle onto the glitter matte circle, and then adhered this to the center of the card. I also added two strips of teal cardstock to the sides of the card. To finish the card off I added some small embellishments to enhance the circular pattern.
We love seeing your creations and would love for you to join us in this month’s challenge! All you have to do to enter is use the challenge theme (circles) to create a project that features at least one Penguin Palace product as the focal point. Full challenge rules can be found here.
This month’s challenge runs until January 30th at 11:59 PDT. We’ll select a winner to receive a $25 CAD gift certificate to ppstamps.com from challenge #33 and #34 which will be announced on March 1st at the beginning of challenge #35!
Don’t forget to link up your project below, and if you’re sharing to social media use the hashtag #penguinpalaceprojects! We’d also love for you to share your projects in the challenge album in our Penguin Palace Facebook group!
