“Faux” de Penguins!
Welcome to the blessing of a brand new week, everyone!
It’s still rather “toasty” here in my little spot of Texas, so I’ve continued to create with “thoughts of coooool” in mind. 😉
Embossed snowflakes seemed to be a good choice for this little trio of penguin chicks, so that’s where I started. 
I’ve shared a video tutorial on how to produce this effect in a previous post, right here.

Then the sweet little penguins needed their downy feathers for added warmth of course. They’re practically cuddly in their ‘faux feathers’ created with Sparkly Fluff. I’m sure it’s helping the three to share the warmth while they await the return of their parents from the most recent fishing trip.

There’s a repeat of the Basic Grey paper inside, with a stamped-off image as well … and of course, a bit more ‘faux snow’!
Thank you, thank you for your visit! Hopefully you’ll be inspired in some way to enable your own creativity this week! I appreciate your visit!
