Penny Black Autumn 2021: Golden

I have a made an autumn themed card with a gorgeous new wreath stamp by Penny Black called Golden. This stamp is from Penny Black's newest collection Autumn 2021.


I stamped the image on a Copic friendly paper and coloured it with my Copics. I then stamped a sentiment from the new Autumn Is Calling sentiment set in the middle of the wreath before matting the panel onto dark brown cardstock. I tied a piece of twine around the panel and tied it into a bow before adhering some craft foam on the backside of the panel. Then I adhered the whole panel onto kraft coloured card base before embellishing it with some clear sequins.


I'm entering my card to the following challenges:

* Simon Says Stamp Wednesday Challenge: Anything Goes

* The Paper Funday Challenge: Challenge #33 - Anything Goes, optional twist Fall/Autumn

* Uniko Challenge #67: Anything Goes, optional twist Autumn Colours





All stamps used are by Penny Black and available in their online store:

* Golden (40-782)

* Autumn Is Calling (30-863)




Tämä ihana kranssileima on Penny Blackin uudesta kokoelmasta Autumn 2021 ja nimeltään Golden. Väritin leimakuvan Copiceilla ja leimasin tekstileiman uudesta tekstileimasetistä Autumn Is Calling sen keskelle. Paneelin kerrostin tummanruskealle kartongille ja sidoin sen ympärille narua. Paneelin taakse kiinnitin fun foamia, jotta sain sen hieman koholle kraftin värisestä korttipohjasta. Lopulta koristelin kortin kirkkailla paljeteilla. Kaikki käytetyt leimat ovat siis Penny Blackin ja saatavilla nettikaupastaan, linkit tuotteisiin yllä.

Penny Black: Set Sail

I love Penny Black's Set Sail stamp set. Not only do they work on summer themed cards, but they work on masculine birthday cards as well! And masculine birthday cards are what I made with the stamps.


On the first card, I stamped the glass bottle and the little sail boat inside it before colouring the image with my Copics and fussy cutting it out. For the background, I die cut a panel with Zig-Zag Stackers die, left the die in place and sponged the panel with some Distress Oxide inks (Speckled Eggs, Weathered Wood and Broken China). I added a bit of patterned paper from Wintertime paper pad on my card base and added a die cut element behind the panel (die cut with Burlap Edge die). I heat embossed a sentiment from Snippets stamp set onto a strip of cardstock and adhered it in place (I adhered both the bottle and the sentiment strip with foam adhesives). Lastly, I embellished the card with some clear sequins.


I'm entering my card to the following challenges:

* Watercooler Wednesday Challenge: WWC325 - All Things Masculine

* Seize the Birthday: Challenge #223 - Faux or Real Stitching





For the second card, I chose another cute sail boat from the Set Sail stamp set, coloured it with my Copics and fussy cut it out. I then created the background by smooshing different Distress ink pads on my craft mat, spritzing it with water and then smooshing a panel of watercolour paper on it. I die cut a frame for it with Stitched Circles die and adhered it to frame the panel I made. I heat embossed a sentiment from Carefree Wishes sentiment set onto a torn strip of vellum and adhred it onto the circular panel before adhering the sail boat with foam adhesives. Before adhering the circular panel onto my card base, I splattered some blue Distress inks onto it. 



Penny Black products used:

* Set Sail (30-842)

* Zig-Zag Stackers (51-714)

* Snippets (30-283)

* Burlap Edge (51-504)

* Wintertime (80-012)

* Carefree Wishes (30-700)

* Stitched Circles (51-551)




Tällaiset synttärikortit tuli tehtyä Penny Blackin Set Sail -leimasetillä. Molemmissa leimakuvat on väritetty Copiceilla ja leikattu irti. Ensimmäiseen korttiin stanssasin paneelin Zig-Zag Stackers -stansseilla, laitoin taustalle kuviopaperia Wintertime-paperikosta ja vyötteen, jonka stanssasin Burlap Edge -stanssilla. Tekstileima Snippets-setistä. Toiseen tein taustan musteilla ja ympyräkehyksen stanssasin Stitched Circles -stansseilla. Tekstileima Carefree Wishes -leimasetistä.

Penny Black: At Ease

I know it's only late September but I already miss summer! I'm definitely not an autumn person... But as I cannot have summer in real life, I'll have it on my card! I created this card with Penny Black's At Ease stamp set - I love that sweet beach hut! I coloured the beach hut with Distress ink refillers and fussy cut it out. For the background, I die cut a panel using Zig-Zag Stackers die and then stamped the beach scene with Mountain Magic stamp set. I then repositioned the die back in place and sponged some Distress Oxide inks in Speckled Egg and Broken China onto it with the die leaving a lovely white border around the panel. I also placed some patterned paper from Wintertime paper pad behind the panel. 


I'm entering my card to the following challenges:

* Allsorts Challenge: Week 643 - Anything Goes

* Simon Says Stamp Monday Challenge: Stitch It





Penny Black products used:

* At Ease (30-844)

* Mountain Magic (40-751)

* Zig-Zag Stackers (51-714)

* Wintertime (80-012)



En todellakaan ole syysihminen, joten kaipuu kevääseen ja kesään alkaa jo vaivata tässä vaiheessa syksyä. Mutta koska oikeasti en kesää tähän hätään saa, tein sen sitten korttiini! Tämä suloinen rantamaja on Penny Blackin leimasetistä At Ease, väritin leimakuvan Distress-musteiden täyttöpulloilla. Taustalle stanssasin paneelin Zig-Zag Stackers -stanssilla ja leimasin rantamaisemaa Mountain Magic -leimoilla. Laitoin sitten stanssin takaisin paikoilleen ja mustetin paneelia Distress Oxide -musteiden sävyillä Speckled Egg ja Broken China, näin stanssi jätti kivan valkoisen reunustan paneeliin. Taustalle laitoin vielä kuviopaperia Wintertime-paperikosta.

Hi - Hei

 I made a just because card with Stamping Bella's Curvy Girl Loves Autumn stamp. I coloured the image with my Copic markers and fussy cut it out. For the background, I combine some patterned papers and heat embossed my sentiment (also Stamping Bella) on a strip of brown cardstock die cut with an MFT die. I then embellished the card with a heart die cut with a Penny Black die and a little pearl.


I'm entering my card to the following challenge:

* Tic Tac Toe Challenge - TTTC132 (I chose Embossing - Patterned paper - Fall theme)





Tämän kortin tein Stamping Bellan Curvy Girl Loves Autumn -leimalla. Leimakuvan väritin Copiceilla ja leikkasin irti. Taustalle laitoin kuviopapereita ja MFT:n stanssilla stanssatun kartonkistripin, johon embossasin tekstileiman (myös Stamping Bellaa). Koristelin kortin Penny Blackin stanssilla stanssatulla sydämellä ja pienellä puolihelmellä.

On your birthday - Syntymäpäivänäsi

I love this floral stamp by Ellen Hutson, it's called Mondo Sakura. I coloured it with my Copics. I wanted to keep the card clean and simple to highlight the gorgeous stamp so I simply masked the three edges of my cardbase and sponged some Distress Oxide ink in Bundled Sage onto it so that it fades towards the bottom of the card. Then I adhered the stamped image onto it, heat embossed my sentiment (it says 'On your birthday') on a strip of black cardstock and adhered it in place and embellished the card with some pale pink enamel dots. 


I'm entering my card to the following challenges:

* Just Add Ink: Challenge #572 - Just Add Inspiration (I was inspired by the pink flowers against the green)

* Watercooler Wednesday Challenge: WWC324 - All About Occasions




Tämä Ellen Hutsonin Mondo Sakura -leima on niin ihana, että halusin pitää muun kortin simppelinä niin, että leimakuva korostuu. Leimakuva on väritetty Copiceilla ja taustalle maskasin suorakulmion kolme reunaa ja mustetin alueen Distress Oxide -musteen sävyllä Bundled Sage niin, että väri haalenee pohjaa kohti. Tekstileiman embossasin mustalle kartonkisoirolle ja kortin koristelin muutamalla enamel dotsilla.

Congrats on your new home! - Onnea uuteen kotiin!

A dear friend of mine moved houses some time ago and I made her this house warming card. I used a stamp by Hero Arts called Venetian Neighborhood - it doesn't look anything like her new house but it's such a beautiful stamp that I wanted to use it anyway! I coloured the image with my watercolours, cut the panel down to size and matted it onto dark brown cardstock. I heat embossed my sentiment (it says 'congrats on your new home') on a strip of yellow cardstock and attached it to my card panel with foam adhesives.


I'm entering my card to the following challenges:

* Happy Little Stampers: September Watercolour Challenge - Anything Goes

* Addicted to Stamps and More! Challenge #414 - Any Occasion





Tämä kortti meni ihanalle ystävälleni, joka joku aika sitten muutti uuteen kotiin. Tämä Hero Artsin Venetian Neighborhood -leima ei muistuta yhtään hänen uutta kotiaan, mutta on kuitenkin niin ihana, että halusin sitä käyttää. Väritin leimakuvan vesiväreillä ja leikkasin sen oikeaan kokoon ennen kuin kiinnitin paneelin tummanruskealle kartongille. Tekstileiman embossasin keltaiselle kartonkipalalle ja kiinnitin kohotarroilla kiinni.

AAA Birthday: September - Syyskuu




The September challenge is live at AAA Birthday and this time the theme is Not a Card. Our Guest Designer for September is Marieke.


I decided to make a gift tag. The cute bunny is from the set Dandelion Wishes by Mama Elephant, I coloured him with my Copics and die cut him out with the matching dies. I created the tag using Tags a Lot dies by Mama Elephant and created a little scene on it using a piece of patterned paper and dies from the Hanging Planters die set by Penny Black. Lastly, I embellished the tag with a little bow.






Syyskuun haaste on alkamassa AAA Birthdayssä ja aiheena on Not a Card. Guest Designerina meillä on Marieke.


Päätin tehdä pienen lahjatagin, johon käytin pupua Mama Elephant -setistä Dandelion Wishes. Pupusen väritin Copiceilla. Tagiin käytin Mama Elephant -stansseja Tags a Lot ja viimeistelin sen palasella kuviopaperia ja Penny Blackin Hanging Planters -stanssisetin stansseilla tehdyillä oksilla.

Guest Designing at AAA Cards - Vieraana AAA Cardsissa



I have the huge honour of being the Guest Designer for the current challenge at AAA Cards - thank you so much, ladies, for having me! The theme is Up to One Third with the optional twist of Leaves.


I decided to go for the optional twist and used stamps from the Winnie & Walter set Renee's Leaves. I coloured the stamped images with my Copics using autumnal colours. For the background, I masked the upper corner and sponged some Distress Oxide ink in Brushed Corduroy along the upper one third of my card base. I then arranged and adhered the leaves, added the heat embossed sentiment (from the Snippets set by Penny Black), and embellished the card with a little twine bow and a single enamel dot.


I'm entering my card to the following challenges:

* Simon Says Stamp Wednesday Challenge: Stamp It!

* As You See It Challenge: Challenge #258 - In the Air

* Inkspirational: Challenge #247 - Autumn Leaves





Minulla on kunnia olla Guest Designer tämänkertaisessa AAA Cards -haasteessa. Teemana on Up to One Third ja vaihtoehtoinen twisti on Leaves.


Omaan korttiini käytin leimoja Winnie & Walterin setistä Renee's Leaves, leimakuvat väritin Copiceilla. Korttipohjaan maskasin kulman ja mustetin yläkolmannesta Distress Oxide -musteen sävyllä Brushed Corduroy. Sitten kiinnitin lehdet paikoilleen, lisäsin embossatun tekstin (Penny Blackin setistä Snippets) ja koristelin kortin pienellä rusetilla ja yhdellä enamel dotsilla.

PBSC: September - Syyskuu


It's September already and time for a new challenge at Penny Black Saturday Challenge. The theme is, as always, Anything Goes with the optional theme of the month being Embossing - Wet or Dry. As our Guest Designer, we have the talented Loll.


For my card, I used the gorgeous Florescence stamp by Penny Black and I coloured the image with my Copics. I wanted to keep the card simple, so for the background I simply masked a rectangle on my card base and sponged some Distress Oxide ink in Bundled Sage on it. After removing the masking tape, I adhered a frame to the sponged rectangle that I had die cut with Looped Stackers die. I then heat embossed a sentiment from Trust Me Builder sentiment set onto a strip of black cardstock and adhered it in place.


Penny Black products used:

* Florescence (40-779)

* Looped Stackers (51-631)

* Trust Me Builder (30-710)


I'm entering my card to the following challenge:

* Simon Says Stamp Wednesday Challenge: Stamp It!





Syyskuun haaste on alkamassa Penny Black Saturday Challengessä ja aiheena on, kuten aina, Anything Goes. Syyskuun vaihtoehtoinen aihe on Embossing - Heat or Dry. Guest Designerina meillä on Loll.


Oman korttini tein Penny Blackin ihanalla Florescence-leimalla, leimakuvan väritin Copiceilla. Halusin pitää kortin simppelinä, joten taustalle maskasin vain suorakulmion, jonka mustetin Distress Oxide -musteella sävyssä Bundled Sage. Maskauksen jälkeen kiinnitin suorakulmioon kehyksen, jonka stanssasin Looped Stackers -stanssilla. Tekstileiman setistä Trust Me Builder embossasin mustalle kartonkisuikaleelle ja kiinnitin paikoilleen.
