Z is For Zoology

 


Beccy's Place runs a month of Holiday Cards challenge throughout November. Most days are a prompt with the letter of the alphabet but as there are only 26 then we get a random prompt too.



The prompt for Day 29 is Z - My card is Z for Zoology (The Study of Animals)

Now Z..... not a huge amount of choices for this one so I thought out of the box a little and thought Zoo / animals and then you have a whole host of critters you can include.

Hunkydory do a club gift every 2 or 3 months and you can get a curated collection of topper sheets and co-ordinating foiled and printed cardstock. You have enough to make 8 cards if you use all their items but I tend to use the elements separately so I can get a lot more cards from each pack. It should cost £11.99 but all you pay is the P&P of £3.95 so they are a great bargain. I usually order staples like glitter glue, foam pads or tape when I get mine and I only order it if it is my style of cardmaking as sometimes it just does not appeal at all so I don't bother with those ones.

I chose one of the images of cute penguins which also had a die cur border. The card has been covered with the darker blue snowflake paper and I added the silver peel off edging around the card.

The sentiment has been popped up on foam pads and laid on top of the lower frame border.

Card Details -


Size - 6” Square

Image, frame & Sentiment - Penguin Party (Hunkydory)

Designer Paper - A Sparkling Winter (Crafter’s Companion)
