Pink Penguin ~ The Challenge 53 & Merry Monday 182

Hello stampers and happy Friday!  

Today's card is for The Challenge #53 and Merry Monday #182.

One calls for non-traditional christmas and the other includes birds.  I used this cute little penguin (my bird) from Avery Elle stamp company.  I colored him up in pink and green, like the challenge inspiration photo, and added a little yellow in there to accommodate his beak and feet.  

Very rarely do I used non- Stampin' Up supplies, but I couldn't resist this little penguin stamp set with the matching dies.  I especially liked this guy with the deer head on his sweater!  

All the colors and paper are Stampin' Up products though!

I combined a little patterned paper, designer vellum, and silver cord to finish off my project.

Thanks for taking a peek and have a blessed day!
