I’m back with another Penny Black card. No stamps used on this one, only dies. I used the Party For You sentiment die and the Love is Growing die. To adhere all the dies to the card panel, I first applied a piece of double sided adhesive sheet to the back of my card stock. I then ran the dies through my die cut, essentially creating my own die cut stickers. It saved me a lot of hassle as I didn’t have to apply an liquid adhesives which can get messy.

Welcome to the latest spotlight blog hop for Jane’s Doodles Stamps. You should have arrived from Vesna’s blog. If you get lost along the way, there is a blog hop order at the end of my post that should point you in the right direction.

Today we are spotlighting the latest two stamp sets to the store called Daisies and Special Delivery. Both sets are very versatile and beautifully designed by Jane herself.

Daisies

 Special Delivery

First up I stamped the daisy stamp onto some white card stock and coloured the image with Copics. I then fussy cut around the flowers before adhering it with foam dimensionals onto a yellow card base.

For my second card, I die cut some clouds from some masking paper. I then sponged on some Salty Ocean distress ink and moved the mask several times to create the cloud scene. The stork and baby were coloured with Copic markers and I then fussy cut around these before adhering them with foam dimensionals.

I’m back with another Penny Black card using some products from their latest release.

I usually create a background like this one with distress inks. But this time I used Kuretake watercolours instead. What I love about these paints is that they are so creamy. I started by wetting some water colour paper with plain water and a paint brush. I then randomly painted on some teals and blues and let the water do the blending. I dried this with my heat tool, before putting some of the watercolours onto my craft mat and adding water to make little pools of colour. I then dabbed the paper into the paint to create the splotches. I did this several times until I was happy with the result.

Once the panel was completely dry, I die cut it with the Penny Black Medallion Creative die. I removed some of the die cut pieces and then adhered the rest onto a card base with some liquid glue. The Hello die cut is from the Penny Black Hello Christmas word set. I really love how it turned out.

Happy Easter! I have a card over on the Jane’s Doodles blog at the moment. It uses the Under the Sea stamp set and the sentiment is from the Hello Friend stamp set. By the way, Jane is having a sale at the moment – 20% off all stamps. Shop here.

After stamping the fish in some waterproof ink, I water coloured the scene using my Kuretake water colour paints. I mixed in some of the white pearlised paint with the aqua paint, and it turned out beautifully. It has a nice lustre and shine to it.

Thanks for visiting. I hope you have a blessed Easter.

I’ve got a sweet little project up on the Sunny Studio blog today. What better way to package some Easter treats, then in a pillow box?

I stamped the stars on the background using the Sunny Borders stamp set. The banner is from the same set. The chick and eggs are from the A Good Egg set and I also used the coordinating dies.
