Don't be fooled! The penguin is the same exact size on these two cards!! I didn't want to confuse anyone here with these pictures!!!!!!! The top cards is a typical A2, 5 1/2 x 4 1/4 card featuring the newly released mini-stamp-set called WADDLE I DO by SWEET 'n SASSY STAMPS! Available today for UNDER $6.00! How's that for a deal!?

He's just the CUTEST little thing and so fun to color in using my COPICS!! His scarf was touched up with a glitter pen, but the picture doesn't do it's sparkly justice like you see in person! Oh, well! Maybe I can use that as an excuse to get a new camera... HAHA!

The paper is some old MME Tres Jolie paper set "Cousins" I believe. I thought that the patterned paper looked similar to those ski-style sweaters you wear on the slopes! And I simply made the wavy sentiment tag by rounding the corners on one end and snipping the other end, and I colored it all over (was originally white) with an off-white Copic to match the dotted paper.

Below, this 5 x 7 card is using the SHEETLOAD OF CARDS September sketch from their debut ISSUE from today! Download your FREEEEEEE issue now! For you newbie readers, I am also a sketch artist at SheetLoad of Cards and this month I got to design up a fun sketch for you to try! SO, download your issue and get to creating a bunch of cards using limited supplies!!

This paper is by Basic Grey, Dasher maybe?? I just used a variety of brads in the center of the poinsettia to bling it up and a corner of red brads to draw your eye up and keep moving around the card to allow some balance, otherwise it was pretty 'bottom-heavy'. I don't make 5 x 7 cards often enough, but if you think about it, this could be put into a little frame for decorating, too! Maybe I should make this size for my Christmas cards this year! A forever keepsake for those recipients!!!
