Meander #2

Here's another card I made with the gorgeous new stamp by Penny Black called Meander.

This one is very simple. I stamped the image on my panel and coloured it with my Copics. I then used a stencil from the stencil set Background Basics and ink blended some Distress Oxide inks in Bundled Sage and Antique Linen on the panel. The sentiment I used is from the sentiment set Delightful Day. Lastly, I matted the panel onto a piece of dark cardstock.

Meander

I made a get well card with some new products by Penny Black. This beauty of a stamp is called Meander and I stamped it partially on my card panel before colouring it with my Copics. I then used a stencil from the stencil set Background Basics and inked a rectangle on the panel with Distress Oxide ink in Antique Linen. The large word 'note' is die cut with the new Note Edger die (here without the edger part) and I completed the sentiment by stamping sentiments from the set Note Builder.

Endearment

This sweet image is from the new Penny Black stamp set called Endearment. Such a lovely image and fun to colour. I coloured the image with my Copic markers and stamped a sentiment from the new sentiment set Note Builder before matting the panel onto a piece of blue cardstock. I also added a tiny die cut flower that I die cut using the Playful Posies die. The patterned paper is from the paper pad Beau Jardin.

PBSC - March

 

We're half way through March (already..) and it's time for mid-month reminder at Penny Black Saturday Challenge. As always, the theme is Anything Goes with the optional theme being Easter.

I chose to follow the Anything Goes theme and created a very CAS card with a new stamp from the recent Penny Black release called Share Your Love. This stamp comes from a set of two called Growing Love. I stamped the image a little off the panel and coloured it with my Karin markers. I then used a stencil from the stencil set Background Basics and sponged some Distress Oxide ink in Old Paper on the panel through the stencil. The sentiment I used is from the new sentiment set Love & Light.

Please do pop by the PBSC blog to enjoy all the inspiration from the DT.

Sending Love

I think this little girl is the sweetest ever so I simply had to make another card with her (see the first one here). She is a new stamp by Penny Black called Love's Embrace.

Again, I coloured her with my Karin markers. I wanted to keep the card very simple so I used a stencil from the stencil set Background Basics and inked a rectangle on the card panel with Distress Oxide inks in Old Paper and Antique Linen. I added some flowers that are die cut with Playful Posies die and a sentiment from the new sentiment set Love & Light.

Love's Embrace

This sweet little girl is a new stamp called Love's Embrace from the recent Penny Black release Share Your Love. I love how she is illustrated, there is something so sweet and free about her!

I coloured her with my Karin markers on a panel die cut with a die from the Border Collection set. I inked the edges of the panel lightly with Old Paper Distress Oxide ink. I inked the upper part showing from underneath the panel with Distress Oxide inks in Salty Ocean and Blueprint Sketch before stamping on it with a stamp from the Footnotes set using Blueprint Sketch ink. The flower is die cut with Whisper die and inked with Salty Ocean ink. The sentiment I used is from the new Love & Light sentiment set. After attaching everything in place (I used a bit of craft foam behind the panel), I embellished the card with a single little dark blue button and some twine.

PBSC - March

 

It's time for the March challenge at Penny Black Saturday Challenge. The theme for this month is Anything Goes with the optional theme of Easter.

I chose the Anything Goes theme and created this birthday card with some new stamps from Penny Black. These cute bunnies are from the new stamp set Cuteness and they are so adorable. I stamped them onto my panel, masked them and did a bit of ink blending using a grid stencil from the Penny Black stencil set Background Basics and some Distress Oxide inks. After removing the masks, I coloured the images with my Copics adding touches of white gel pen here and there. The sentiment I used is from the sentiment set Delightful Day. Before adding some enamel dots, I matted the panel onto a piece of black cardstock and adhered it onto my card base.

Guest Designing at CAS on Friday

I have the pleasure of being the Guest Designer for the current challenge at CAS on Friday where the theme is Hello. Thank you so much for having me, ladies!

I went super CAS with my card and kept the elements at a minimum. I created the background with a stencil from the Penny Black stencil set Background Basics and did a bit of ink blending with Distress Oxide inks in Salvaged Patina and Uncharted Mariner before splattering some white watercolour paint onto the circle. I used an older Winnie and Walter die for the word, die cutting it from dark grey cardstock. The flower is die cut with a die from Simply Graphic. I adhered the die cuts in their places and matted the panel onto a piece of dark grey cardstock before embellishing the card with some black gems.

Please be sure to pop by the CAS on Friday blog to see the wonderful inspiration provided by the Design Team and don't forget to join in the challenge!
