Chill Wishes Penguin Pop-up Card

I told you how much I love the MFT Chill Wishes stamp set.  Well, I was wondering what the penguins would look like if they didn't have such a frightened look on their faces, so I decided to have a little fun with their eyes.  I stamped out an entire sheet of penguins using a Q-tip to wipe the ink off of the eyeballs before putting the stamp to card stock. That way I could draw in any kind of eyeball I wanted.  I had so much fun trying out different expressions!!  I loved the little guys so much that I used some of them to make this birthday pop up card for my friend!

Decorating their hats and scarves was fun, too.  I didn't keep track of the Copic colors or the dies that I used because I was enjoying the fun of it all, but if you need to know, I can try to figure it out for you.  Just leave me a message.  Here is the pop-up inside!

Isn't it cool how the different eyes give the penguins different personalities? Here is a close ups.  Which one do you like best?

I know a couple look sad or bored but they needed to be in the crowd to pass on the "Chill wishes and penguin kisses" too!  Here are some more close-up shots...

I hope my card made you smile.  Happy New Year!
