Penguin Dressed as Rudolph

 Morning and I have three DT posts today the third and last one  for the "Black/White+1 other Colour" challenge at Get Creative 

 

 Unfortunately this will be my last card for Get Creative   as these last couple of months I have been feeling a little overwhelmed and struggling -beginning to feel like a full time job so have decided to leave some of the DT -this being one of them.

We are sponsored by Drawn By Krista and I used the cute image Penguin Dressed as Rudolph coloured with promarkers.

Die-cut frames from Sizzix and the stamped sentiment and border stamp are from Penny Black.

A great card Carol and I love the pop of red on the penguin.
It's great being on DT's but it can be all time consuming, I came off a few a couple of years ago so I know what you mean, but I'm sure they will miss you.
Thanks for sharing this over at Try it on Tuesday.

I am not surprised you are feeling a bit overwhelmed. I get overwhelmed and I only design for 1 challenge! Sometimes we just have to take a step back to find a bit of space. Love the reindeer penguin, very cute. Looks great in black and white with a pop of red xx

pinky said...

It's a beautiful card Carol and I am sure the team will miss you. I left quite a few dts before starting stampin' up as I felt I wasn't making what I really wanted to make, just churning them out so to speak. Relax and enjoy yourself again.

Viv said...

Great card Carol and I understand what you say about being overwhelmed. Sometimes you just need to get back to crafting without deadlines and making just cos you want to! x

Oh, this is adorable! I sure understand about needing to cut back on DT obligations. Do your own thing for a while with no deadlines. It was fun while it lasted, I'm sure!
