Today I am sharing a tag I have made using some Penny Black products from the Bring on the Happy release. This tag has some great texture as I used the Penny Black Hypnotic stencil with some embossing paste (that I coloured with Peacock Feather’s Distress Ink).

I also used the Penny Black Hello Creative word die (I trimmed the long trail off the end of the word). The little butterfly is from the Penny Black Flight of Fancy butterfly die set.

Penny Black products used:
– Hello Creative Die 51-104
– Flights of Fancy Creative Die 51-132
– Tagged Creative Die 51-007
– Hypnotic Stencil 25-015

I was determined NOT to make a blue card for the Muse Card Club this month. Looking through my last Muse cards, blue seems to be something I gravitate too! So how about a dose of yellow for this month?

These sweet birds (coloured with Copics) are from the Penny Black ‘Woodland Friends’ Stamp set and the sentiment is also from a Penny Black set called ‘Live it Up!’. I created the background by creating a wash with Distress inks, and once dry, flicked on some splatters with a paintbrush.

Hope that you will be able to find some time this week to join in on the fun.

Today I am back sharing a card using some of the new Penny Black products from their latest release Bring on the Happy.

I have created a fun scene using the Live it Up! stamp set and paired it with a sentiment from the Sprinkles and Smiles stamp set. I coloured in the balloons with Copics and added some clear Wink of Stella glitter pen for some subtle shine. I masked off a circle and blended in some Salty Ocean distress ink to create the sky.

Penny Black products used:
– Live it Up! stamp set
– Sprinkles and Smiles stamp set

Another month has rolled around and it is my turn to be the Muse at the Muse Card Club. I have had this die from Memory Box in my craft stash for well over a year and a half….and it has NEVER made it onto a card until now! Better late than never.

I sponged distress ink onto the small focal panel and to create the stars I spritzed the panel with some water from a mister bottle before dabbing it away with a dry cloth. It created just the right amount of stars for my scene.

Hope that you will be able to find some time this week to join in on the fun.

Hello! Welcome to the Jane’s Doodles spotlight blog hop, where we are showcasing the ADORABLE Seamus stamp set. Isn’t he just the sweetest?

I had a LOT of fun creating with this little guy – so much personality. I think it is my favourite JD stamp set to date!

First up I have Seamus juggling some shiny hearts. I curved the sentiment on this one.

My second card was cased from this card by Christine. I loved her card design and thought Seamus could get a very similar treatment.

Now if you would like to win a copy of the Seamus stamp set, leave a comment at all the stops and you will go into a random draw to win your own copy. The winner will be announced on Monday. Also Jane has Seamus on sale in the shop – 15% off for the spotlight blog hop.
