The first is Christmas Craft Creations August Challenge - Winter Activities.
... and Peace on Earth Challenge #22. I love the mood board and focussed on the penguin in the top right image. :)
I started with a background from my stash of Brushos smooshed onto mixed media paper. I cut my panel to size and then added two strips of torn white card stock for my snowhills. I used my new Penguin Pals stamps and dies (Sunny Studio) to stamp and watercolour my penguin, floating ice and North Pole sign. The sentiment is from the same stamp set.
For finishing touches, I used my white pen to add "waves" in the water and also stripes on the penguins scarf and toque. Clear Wink of Stella adds sparkle to the floating ice, penguin hat (cuff and pompom).

This is the first time using this stamp and die set, so I'm sending my card over to NBUS Challenge #41.

This penguin is so cute and the coordinating sentiment and North Pole sign are really great too Loll. I love the torn paper snow banks/ice floes and the wonderful bright blue for the water with the white pen ripples which work so well..such a fun and pretty card. x
That's such a cute penguin and I do love how you make your snow scenes with torn paper, it is so effective and adds such lovely texture xx
Too cute, Loll! I like her purple hat and scarf!
So cute Loll, love your little scene and that really sweet sentiment ♥
Darling penguin on his ice floe, Loll - so many great details on your cute scene!!

Awwwwwww...this little guy is just too CUTE Loll, and you've put him in a wonderful and chilly looking Winter scene! LOVE it!! Hugs. :0)
I almost got this set just for the pun alone, Loll, but you've turned it into a wonderful winter scene with that darling penguin floating away on an ice floe. I love your torn hills. It's a great way to add texture and dimension.
What a fun card with that adorable penguin. I love his hat and scarf and the ice floe he's on.
Oh, cute! Your scene is a delight, especially for the penguin having a ride on the ice floe. Love how you turned the blue into water by adding the white squiggles, and your torn paper is very effective as snow. I see the sparkles on the ice. What fun, Loll!
I love the waves that make this penguin look like he's racing down the rive! The snowbanks are perfect and the sentiment is fun! A fantastic Christmas card, my friend!

I love the second photo, where you can see all the details perfectly. You created the snowdrifts so amazingly by tearing the white cardboard. Great effect!
