Penguins & the Christmas Moon

      We have another new recipe over at our Crafty Chefs FB page and this is the card I've done following it.  Carol gave us the recipe this month and, while you can check it out on the site, I'll also give it to you right after I show you my card.  The penguins & moon are from SheepSki Designs.


Recipe:
MUST DO:  
Add a tag, Make a pocket, Use analogous colors (next to each other on the color wheel), Use a die
CAN DO:
Mirror CS, Charm, Stitching

I did all of the MUST DO and did Stitching from the CAN DO list.

Here's another photo showing how I used the pocket and tag for the sentiment.


Colors were pulled from My Favorite Things.

Colored w ProMarkers
Cut w QuicKutz octagon die
Red frame cut w QuicKutz
Moon, pocket piece, & tag cut w Spellbinders
Faux stitching done w gel pens
Soft twine for the tag
Gingham ribbon for the bow

     Don't forget that Crafty Chefs is open to anyone who would care to join in and stretch their comfort zone a little bit.  Hope to see you over there.  :-D  Happy Crafting.  NanaConnie
