Hello friends, it’s Christy here with a fun and frosty scene starring Penguins on Ice. I love these little guys and they are so quick and easy to color! Which makes them the perfect subject when you’re trying out a brand-new technique, or should I say, brand-new to me. I’ve been wanting to try the reflection technique for so many years, and for some reason I’ve chickened out every time. But this time I determined I was going to give it a go.

Hi Bluebird Friends, Sara here! Today it’s my turn over the Hello Bluebird Blog and I have a Christmas card to show you, featuring the recent released Penguins on Ice stamp set. I wanted to create a really simple design, that could be used for mass production during the “Christmas Rush”.

I wanted to create a sort of patterned paper, so I changed their “direction” and I mixed them. I then started coloring: since it...
