7X7 Mini Kit , 3 Chilly PenguinsCompleted by Pamela Horton The whispering Platypus

This cute trio of penguins will appeal to all audiences regardless of age. I have many recipients planned for this beautifully designed Christmas greeting by Ceredwyn, made slightly different each time.

To complete this card, I have printed the sheet provided onto A4,satin finished white 170gsm photo paper, twice and used one main image as the main backing sheet.

I used one of the verse sections to cut away the frame leaving the scallops and holly intact and used silicon glue and padded D.S. tape to attach this to the main image.

I then used the second copy of the main image to remove the frame and the scalloped edge image and attached this to the step-by-step method of decoupage, using padded D.S. tape, to complete the topper.

I made a bright purple 12cm square backing sheet and attached the topper to this using D.S. tape.

The main card is printed onto both sided of 170gsm white satin finished A4 photo paper with cup797371_79993, Christmas mistletoe and berries, a design by Clare Walker, and cut down to 13.5cm x27cm, scored and folded.

I then attached the topper using red power tape to the card front. I cut out the smaller elements and attached them using silicone glue and padded D.S. tape. To complete the insert, I have used the supplied framed verse section to place onto the right of the insert.

I have used the extra frame, the trio of penguins and some holly to decoupage onto the left section of the insert, leaving a small space underneath for my message.

Thank you, Ceredwyn, for the extra little images, they fold perfectly to make gift cards. Pamela Horton. The Whispering Platypus.
