Happy Sunday, y'all, and it's time for a new Paper Players challenge! This time the lovely Jan has a color combination for us:
I thought about this one for a while and then I had a brainwave and I made this:
Pengwengs! We shall never forget the time that Benedict Cumberbatch narrated an entire documentary about flightless birds and discovered he can't say the word "penguin" properly, haha! My bird-obsessed kiddo went through a phase where he watched Happy Feet over and over so I knew these colors would be perfect for this penguin pair, from the long-retired stamp set Cold-Weather Friends. I embossed the image with black ink + Versamark + clear EP and then watercolored with Daffodil Delight and Smoky Slate ink, then added a bit of Wink of Stella to the ground so it would look a little glittery like real snow.

adorable. Colors are stunning and lots of sparkle.
I couldn't wait to comment on your "pengwengs"---absolutely adorable and the background papers are spot on! I could look at these cuties all day!
Well, you really did have a brainwave with these pengwings - yes, we call them that too and for the same reason! I love that you took the yellow from the penguin and drew it out into the card base. Great choice of papers to give the birds a suitable cold space to play. Love this card!
