We're All in this Together.....

Hello everyone: This image is NOT from a stamp, I sketched it a while ago from one of my grandkids school books, I just fell in love with this pair of baby Emperor Penguins. I took it home and stuck it right there by my work table wondering what I was going to do with it until I saw the Muse Christmas Visions challenge and then, I knew this little image was just waiting for it.  Here is my card.

Ok, I took a piece of Vellum and copied the image I drew with pencil then, when I was happy with it I went over it with a Zig Millenium .01 black pen being careful and making sure the lines were nice and even all around the images. Once I had this done then came the question, how to color this little guys so, I went to Google and looked for baby Emperor Penguins pictures and I saw they are kind of grayish but their heads are black. So I grabbed my black Prismacolor pencil and went to work, drawing soft lines and blending them with a paper stump that has very little baby oil.  For their faces, I went in the back of the Vellum with the white pencil, I did the same for the ice and snow under their little bodies.  I sponged a bit of blue for the sky and that was it. 

The sentiment is from my Power Poppy set called Sassy Succulents and it's stamped with Versafine Onix Black ink. 

Here is a picture of the finished inside of my card.

The sentiment is from the same set, the little bird on the corner is from a retired SU set called "Snow Much Fun".

Here is the Muse picture that inspired my card.

I'm linking this card also to the Crafting from the Heart "Anything Goes"

and

Thank you for stopping by today, until next time, happy stamping.

Hugs from Maria.
