The details on how I made this card:
The base is Bazzill kraft cardstock folded to 4x5". I cut the tag from Neenah white 80 lb cardstock with the largest of the Paper Smooches gift tag dies. I cut an additional tag and then die cut it again with the Simon Says Stamp stitched slopes dies. I cut the penguin and banner from the same white cardstock.
The banner is from the Lawn Fawn blue skies stamp set and was cut out with the coordinating dies. I colored with penguin and banner with just a few of my copic markers pictured below.
For the patterned paper border I used a cute red pattern from the Lawn Fawn snow day 6x6 pad. I cut it with the scalloped border from MFT blueprints 4. I didn't want to cut out the entire scallop border so I placed in on the edge of my cutting plates, apparently ignoring the rule to place dies above the arrow but it worked out okay. :) I then trimmed the scalloped border to fit on my card.
I assembled the card as shown. I used dimensional adhesive on the tag, slope, penguin and banner and added red twine. I also added the little kraft circle on the tag's hole which I cut from a different Paper Smooches tag die set.
I had the most fun putting together this card! That ice skating little penguin with the banner over his head just makes me happy. :) I'm linking with the Lawnscaping Challenge where the theme this week is dots and stripes.
