Simon Wednesday Challenge - Animal Antics

Here is Simon Wednesday Challenge - Animal Antics, below is the challenge photo:

And here is the card I made to attend this challenge:



I made this slimline card using Mama Elephant's The Penguin's Waddle stamp set. I used masking technique and stamped the penguins on the white cardstock, colored them with Copic markers, then cut it out. I used black cardstock and swiped Arteza mica powders (mixed with gum arabic and water) to create the shiny blue background. I die cut "merry christmas" (from Lawn Fawn) three times from white cardstock and stacked them together. Finish the card by attaching the penguins and "merry christmas" die on the background. Below is another look of the card:



Supplies:
Cardstock: PTI, Gina K Designs, Neenah
Ink Pads: Gina K Designs
Stamps: Mama Elephant
