Puppies - Pennut

Aren't these puppies the cutest!? These little puppies come from the set Waggingly Happy by Penny Black and I am smitten with them! 

I used three of the four puppy stamps in the set and coloured the images with my Copics. I wanted to display the puppies in some sort of grid so I used the window die called Viewpoint for that. I die cut it out of dark brown cardstock and adhered the puppies in place. The sentiment comes from the Waggingly Happy set, I die cut a piece of cardstock with Just a Note die, left the die in place and sponged some Distress Oxide ink in Salvaged Patina onto the die cut before stamping the sentiment. The little paper clip is die cut with the same Just a Note die set. For the background, I used patterned paper from Coco Style paper pad and adhered the grid with foam adhesives on it as I did the die cut note. Lastly, I embellished the card with a heart die cut with Bear-y Much Cut Out die and some enamel dots.

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

* Waggingly Happy (30-812)

* Viewpoint (51-724)

* Just a Note (51-531)

* Bear-y Much Cut Out (51-598)

* Coco Style paper pad (discontinued)

Nämä suloiset koiranpennut ovat Penny Blackin setistä Waggingly Happy, väritin ne Copiceilla. Kehikon stanssasin Viewpoint-stanssilla ja kiinnitin koirat siihen. Tekstileima on samaisesta Waggingly Happy -setistä, leimasin sen Just a Note -stanssilla stanssattuun paperiin, johon mustetin hieman Distress Oxide -mustetta sävyssä Salvaged Patina. Taustalle laitoin kuviopaperia paperikosta Coco Style ja kiinnitin kehikon kohotarroilla siihen. Koristelin kortin pienellä klemmarilla (stanssattu Just a Note -stanssisetin stanssilla), sydämellä (stanssattu Bear-y Much Cut Out -stanssilla) ja muutamalla enamel dotsilla.

Garden's Grace - Kukkakimppu

I love this stamp by Penny Black - all the pretty flowers and the folk art feel the stamp has. I decided to really show off the stamp without adding much fuss to the card so I simply coloured the image with my Copics, cut the panel to size before matting it first to black, then to white cardstock. Then I adhered the matted panel to the blue cardbase. The sentiment I used is from Snippets sentiment set, I heat embossed it onto a strip of black cardstock and adhered it with foam adhesives. Lastly, I adhered black rhinestones in the centres of the sunflowers.

Garden Fragrance - Puutarhan Tuoksuja

I love Penny Black's floral stamps and this one is no exception. This beauty is called Garden Fragrance. I coloured the image with my Karin markers and die cut the panel with Semi-Circle Stackers die. Before removing the die, I sponged some Distress Oxide ink in Salvaged Patina on the panel. The sentiment is from the set Not Older, Better. Before adhering the panel, I matted it onto a piece of brown cardstock and then used a piece of patterned paper from the paper pad Coco Style for the background. I embellished the card with some clear bling.

PBSC: August - Elokuu

It's time for a new challenge at Penny Black Saturday Challenge. Our theme for the month of August is, as always, Anything Goes with the optional theme of Music.

For my card, I used a beautiful floral stamp by Penny Black called Gladness. I did some no line watercolouring using my Karin markers and then die cut the edge with a die from the die set Border Collection. I then sponged some Distress Oxide inks in Antique Linen and Frayed Burlap onto the panel and splattered some inks in different colours onto it. The sentiment I used is from the sentiment set Not Older, Better. My nod to our theme of Music is on the piece of cardstock that shows from behind the die cut edge. I sponged some Distress Oxide ink in Worn Lipstick onto a piece of cardstock after which I stamped onto it several times with a stamp from the set Footnotes using Picked Raspberry Distress Oxide ink. Lastly, I attached it and the panel in their places and embellished the card with some black rhinestones.

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

* Gladness (40-854)

* Not Older, Better (30-896)

* Footnotes (30-238)

* Border Collection (51-717)

On elokuun haasteen aika Penny Black Saturday Challengessä ja teemana on Anything Goes/Music. 

Omaan korttiini käytin Penny Blackin Gladness-leimaa, jonka väritin no line -tekniikalla käyttäen Karin-tusseja. Paneelin reunan stanssasin Border Collection -setin stanssilla ja mustetin paneelia Distress Oxide -musteilla Antique Linen ja Frayed Burlap. Tämän jälkeen roiskin siihen vielä musteita eri sävyissä. Musiikkiteemaa käytin kartongissa, joka näkyy stanssatun reunan alta. Mustetin kartonkipalaa DO-musteen Worn Lipstick -sävyllä ja leimasin siihen useaan kertaan leimalla setistä Footnotes käyttäen DO-musteen sävyä Picked Raspberry. Tämän jälkeen kiinnitin osaset paikoilleen ja koristelin kortin mustilla timanteilla. Kaikki käytetyt tuotteet ovat Penny Blackin ja saatavilla nettikaupastaan, linkit tuotteisiin yllä.

Die Cut Florals - Stanssattuja kukkia

 I had a bit of a play with Penny Black dies and Distress Oxide inks today.

For the first card, I used the floral die Splendid. After die cutting all the elements, I sponged some Distress Oxide inks on them. I used Tattered Rose, Abandoned Coral and Candied Apple for the flower and Evergreen Bough and Rustic Wilderness for the leaves. Then I assembled the flower. The panel is die cut with a die from the Graceful Stackers set. I left the die in place and sponged Distress Oxide inks in Scattered Straw and Frayed Burlap on the panel. After I removed the die, I stamped the sentiment from So Thankful sentiment set on it. For the background I used cream coloured cardstock onto which I die cut the border using Textural die. Then I simply adhered everything in place (the panel and the flower itself are both adhered using foam adhesives) and embellished the card with clear drops.

* Graceful Stackers (51-658)

* Textural (51-729)

* So Thankful (30-914)

The second card is more clean and simple. The floral die I used is called Whisper and I die cut it twice, once for the leaves and stem and the second time for the flowers. I coloured the stem and leaves with Distress Oxide inks in Lucky Clover and Rustic Wilderness and the flowers with DO inks in Picked Raspberries and Seedless Preserves. For the background, I did a bit of masking before sponging the panel with DO inks in Salvaged Patina and a teeny bit of Peacock Feathers. The sentiment is from the same sentiment set as in the previous card, So Thankful. After stamping it, I adhered the flower in place and embellished it with some black half pearls.

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

* Whisper (51-737)

* So Thankful (30-914)

Nämä kortit syntyivät Penny Blackin stansseilla ja Distress Oxide -musteilla leikkimällä. Ensimmäiseen korttiin käytin Splendid-kukkastanssia. Osasten stanssaamisen jälkeen väritin ne mustettamalla niitä Distress Oxide -musteen sävyillä Tattered Rose, Abandoned Coral ja Candied Apple (kukka) ja Evergreen Bough ja Rustic Wilderness (lehdet). Taustan paneelin stanssasin Graceful Stackers -setin stanssilla, jätin stanssin paikalleen ja mustetin sitä DO-musteen sävyillä Scattered Straw ja Frayed Burlap. Taustan kartonkiin stanssasin boordin Textural-stanssilla. Tekstileima on setistä So Thankful.

Toiseen korttiin käytin Whisper-kukkastanssia. Senkin väritin DO-musteilla: Lucky Clover ja Rustic Wilderness (varsi ja lehdet) sekä Picked Raspberries ja Seedless Preserves (kukat). Taustaa hieman maskasin ja mustetin sitäkin DO-musteilla Salvaged Patina ja Peacock Feathers. Tekstileima on samaisesta So Thankful -setistä kuin ensimmäisen kortin tekstileimakin. Kukkaa koristelin mustilla puolihelmillä.

Pansies - Orvokit

 Here's a floral card that I made with Penny Black's pretty stamp called Pansies.

I coloured the image with my Karin markers after which I masked the edges of the panel and sponged some Distress Oxide inks in Speckled Egg and Bundled Sage on the panel. I then splattered the same inks on the panel. The sentiment I used is from the set So Thankful. Lastly, I matted the panel onto purple cardstock before adhering it all to my card base.

Tällainen kukkakortti syntyi Penny Blackin ihanalla Pansies-leimalla. Väritin leimakuvan Karin-tusseilla, minkä jälkeen maskasin paneelin reunat ja levitin paneeliin Distress Oxide -musteita sävyissä Speckled Egg ja Bundled Sage. Samoilla sävyillä roiskin musteita paneeliin. Tekstileima on setistä So Thankful. Lopulta kerrostin paneelin liilalle kartongille ja kiinnitin korttipohjaan.
