Punch Art-Penguin Valentine
Punch Art-Penguin Valentine
Feb 08I got a picture of this at my Stampin' Up! Leadership Conference a few weeks ago and thought it was just adorable! Thank you my guest artist, whoever you are. I photographed a friend's sample, but didn't get the name of the person who created it. Sometimes, swappers don't put their names on their swaps.

As near as I can figure, the penguin is made from a combination of Punches and Die Cuts. I remember the colors used, all Card Stock:
- Old Olive 8-1/2" x 11" (#100702), 5-1/2" x 8-1/2" card base
- Basic Black 8-1/2" x 11" (#121045), penguin body, wings & eyes
- Whisper White 8-1/2" x 11" (#100730), penguin body
- Pumpkin Pie 8-1/2" x 11" (#105117), beak & feet
- Real Red 8-1/2" x 11" (#102482), large heart
- Melon Mambo 8-1/2" x 11" (#115320), smaller heart
You could use scraps for the details and SNAIL (#104332) them on! These are the Dies for the Big Shot Die-Cutting Machine (#113439) & Punches:
- Top Note Bigz Die (#113463)
- Hearts Collection Framelits Dies (#125599)
- 3/16" Corner Punch (#119871)
- Decorative Label Punch (#120907)
- 3/4" Circle Punch (#119873)
- Large Oval Punch (#119855)
The other supplies used are: Short & Sweet Stamp Set (#115060); Basic Black Classic Stampin' Pad (#101179); White Signo uni-ball Gel Pen (#105021)
I am guessing that the black body is 5" x 4" with the corners rounded. That would work with the white Top Note Die Cut and leave room for the feet.
