Rockhopper Penguin

The weather is absolutely crazy here. Yesterday we had more than enough torrential downpours, water standing in the streets and even an evacuation of Edinburgh Zoo. I had to revert to wellies for my trip to the Sincerely Yours show, which was very busy despite the awful weather. Crafters just are a tough bunch and always venture out when craty treats are calling :).

And it was not much better today. At some point the rhones just could not take the amount of water anymore (and they were only cleaned recently) and the water just shot over them like a waterfall.

The above card, which features a rockhopper penguin, had its 'premiere' as sample for Crafty Stamps and Stampers Grove at yesterday's Sincerely Yours show in Edinburgh. I was tempted to add a few more layers. But I am conscious that not everybody wants to create cards influenced by Sue Wilson's style, so I opted for a slightly simplified layout to show that this is also possible with her dies.
