When you have a bit of a Christmas addiction you needs to create Christmas/Holiday cards all year long. This was you can use your products and rationalize buying more... am I right?!😂

I was away with crafty friends the last few days of July into the first weekend of August and got 5 of these cards done. I show 3 but I actually made 3 of the first Blue and Red color way. They actually were pretty quick.. at least for me. They have a fun interactive feature. The Penguins legs (with ice skates) swing back and forth.


I didn't write down the ink colors I used but I was able to figure out the cardstock and "splatter".
