HOLLY JOLLY STAMP CAMP, Christmas Penguin Box...

Project #2 from my Holly Jolly Stamp Camp is this adorable little Penguin box!  I knew I had to do a penguin project as both my girls love penguins especially Colleen.  After trying out a few different ideas, we ended up going with this one.  However, Jenni and I had a difference of opinion on whether to have the penguin wearing "earmuffs" or not.  I gave people the choice to do them or not, but I still love the earmuffs, Jen!  I would like it if the handle/earmuff band were not as high, but I wanted to be sure you could get treats in and out easily.

Jen named him "Private" after one of the Madagascar penguins.  It suits him, so Private Christmas it is!   :)

This little box uses the Fancy Favor Die, which is one of my FAVORITES!  It is such a useful little box!  It can be adapted for so many different holiday characters and themes.  I hope you enjoy this little guy!

  1. both are very cute but I have to say I think the earmuffs "finish" it.
    There are sooooo many items I have checked off in the catalog and I wanted a lot from the christmas mini catalog....alas, the loss of hubby's job means I can't go shopping :(
