Hello and welcome back crafty friends!
We LOVED seeing your summery projects over the past month and want to thank you so much for participating in Challenge #26.
Thank you so much to all of those who participated in Challenge #25 & 26! Congratulations to our Challenge #25-26 winner, Ellen Coats, please feel free to grab and display your winner badge which can be found on the righthand column (or at the bottom of the page on mobile)!
Now, onto Penguin Palace Challenge #27! I’m so excited to be sharing inspiration using this month’s moodboard and products from the new release! This month’s moodboard is a bit of mermaids meets mountains, inspired by the mountains of British Columbia, Canada — where Penguin Palace Stamps was created (& where I’m currently vacationing!).
Don’t forget to link your projects featuring Penguin Palace stamps below for your chance to win a $25 gift card!

I started by ink blending the Radiance Stencils 360°™ at 22.5° intervals in shades of blue and purple. I alternated using a heavy and light pressure each time and only blended 5 intervals. Then I fussy cut this out to form the peacock tail (don’t be afraid to use your stencils in creative ways!).

Next, I stamped the peacock body and wing from Beautiful Inside & Out in purple and blue due ink, respectively. I diecut the body out out using the coordinating die, and added a few extra diecuts behind for additional dimension.
Before adhering the tail and body to my card base, I ink blended some soft teal dye ink toward the bottom to “ground” my image. Then, I stamped a sentiment from the Unity and Friendship Quotes in the bottom righthand corner. And of course, to finish the card off I added a few sequins.

We love seeing your creations and would love for you to join us in this month’s challenge! All you have to do to enter is use the challenge color palette / theme (XXX) to create a project that features at least one Penguin Palace product as the focal point. Full challenge rules can be found here.
This month’s challenge runs until July 30th at 11:59 PDT. We’ll select a winner to receive a $25 CAD gift certificate to ppstamps.com from challenge #27 and #28 which will be announced on September 1st at the beginning of challenge #29!
Don’t forget to link up your project below, and if you’re sharing to social media use the hashtag #penguinpalaceprojects! We’d also love for you to share your projects in the challenge album in our Penguin Palace Facebook group!

Congratulations to Ellen! Lovely card by Candice! I just purchased the Summer Release Stencils 360 collection and am excited to play with the stencil she used here!
