Floating By

My son's girlfriend's birthday was last week but we are celebrating this weekend. 

 She LOVES penguins so I knew right away my Waddles stamps would come out. 





I stamped Waddles with Memento Tuxedo black ink. This stamp only has one balloon with it so I masked it off and re-stamped the balloons. I wanted Waddles to look like he was floating in the sky so he needed more then one balloon. The cloud paper behind will hopefully give the "floating" look as well. The stamp is  coloured with alcohol markers (list below) and then fussy cut. I added some pop dots and put him on the card. It's hard to see if the picture but I added Wink of Stella to the tassles on the hat - gotta have a bit of bling somewhere right?!

 I am entering this card July Challenge - Anything Goes at One Crazy Stamper
as well as  Sketch and Colour Challenge #18 at Your Next Stamp. I chose to use the sketch for this challenge.

    Waddles is perfect floating by! Great idea to add in the extra balloons - he definitely needs more to float. Thanks for joining in the fun at YNS and sharing your take on sketch #18.
