Overflowing Florals

I made another card using the gorgeous Overflowing stamp set from the new Penny Black release called All Smiles. These flowers are just so beautiful and fun to colour. I coloured them with my Copics before die cutting them with the matching die, Overflowing Cut Out. I wanted to add a bit of greenery so I die cut some leaves with the Fall Fern die and ink blended them with Rustic Wilderness Distress Oxide ink. For the background, I die cut a frame with Frame It die and inked its edges very lightly with Antique Linen Distress Oxide ink. The sentiment I used is from the Love & Light sentiment set. I adhered everything in place before embellishing the card with some black gems.

Overflowing

I really liked the sketch I used for my previous card which is a sketch from Permission to Play video series by Jill Foster of Penny Black so I decided to use it again. This time I made a floral card with it using new stamps from the latest Penny Black release called All Smiles. These flowers are from the set Overflowing and they have a set of matching dies called Overflowing Cut Out. I really like the fun tea cups from the new set Brew-Tea-Ful that have matching dies as well, Brew-Tea-Ful Cut Out, and used one of the cups for this card. I coloured the images with my Copics before die cutting them. I then used a piece of patterned paper from the paper pad Coco Style for the background and, following the sketch, added a piece of off-white cardstock on the card. I also decided to layer the piece of cardstock onto a piece of dark grey cardstock so that it would stand out from the patterned paper a bit better. The sentiment I used is from the sentiment set Brighten the World. Lastly, I embellished the card with some sparkly gems.

Purr

There is a new release by Penny Black called All Smiles and this sweet stamp is one of the gorgeous new stamps. This is called Purr and I just love it! The look on the little girl's and the cat's faces - priceless! 


Jill Foster of Penny Black is also doing a video series on YouTube called Permission to Play with loads of wonderful sketches. I wanted to play, too, and did this card following one of Jill's sketches. I coloured the image with my Copics and stamped the sentiment from the sentiment set Smiles on a panel of Copic friendly cardstock which I also matted onto a piece of brown cardstock. Instead of using an embossing folder like Jill did, I wanted to use patterned paper from the paper pad Painted Blooms for the background. I attached it to my card base and attached the panel onto it with foam adhesives.

Flower

Here's a simple one layer card I made with Thankful for Friends stamp set by Pinkfresh Studio. I coloured the image with my Copics and added a bit of white gel pen here and there. I then used a stencil from the Background Basics stencil set by Penny Black and blended some Distress Oxide inks in Bundled Sage and Old Paper on the panel. Lastly, I stamped the sentiment (it says 'Congratulations' in Finnish).

On Your Special Day

I made this card with my new Pinkfresh Studio stamps from the set Anemone Magic. I coloured the image with my Copics before die cutting it with the matching die. The panel in the background is die cut with the Pinkfresh Studio die Hexagon Tiles Cover Plate and the frame is die cut with Stitched Rectangle Scallop Edge Frame die by MFT. The heat embossed sentiment says 'On your special day'. I embellished the card with some sparkly gold enamel dots.

Graduation Card

Here's another graduation card I made this year. I used Penny Black's gorgeous rose stamp called Prized and coloured the image with my Copics before fussy cutting it out. I then die cut a small label and stamped the sentiment ('To the Graduate') on it and tied it around the rose stemp with gold thread. For the background I layered a panel of white cardstock on top of a panel of gold cardstock and matted them onto my card base. I also die cut the circle frame with Penny Black's Stars & Circles die out of gold card stock. I adhered everything in place and added a gold sticker to the upper right corner.
