Penguin Birthday Card with Freshly Made Sketch #665

One of my male friends was visiting Antarctica recently and sent me lots of photos of penguins which inspired my card. The penguin stamp is from Close to my Heart (CTMH)"Winter Friends" and the sentiment is from CTMH "Dragonfly Wishes".  The paper strips are from CTMH "Gnomes for Winter," Recollections "Holographic Dreams" and CTMH Outdoor Denim cardstock.  I turned the sketch on its side so I could fit in the sentiment and penguin. 


Here is the fabulous Freshly Made Sketch that inspired my card layout:


I’m also entering this card into the following challenges:

      A Cut Above--Anything Goes with a diecut

      Simon Says Monday--Use Dies

      Seize the Birthday #296--Masculine

Thanks for stopping by!  Have a wonderful week filled with fun and creativity!
