A Special Wish – Penny Black

simplicity sister

Today I am sharing another CAS card using some more fabulous Penny Black products.
I stamped a background pattern using some of the leaf images from the Petal Power stamp set in a teal coloured pigment ink. The red dots were made with a red Copic marker. The sentiment is from the Special Wishes stamp set which I cut out and popped up on some foam squares.

Birthday Kitty @ Muse

Hello. It is my week as the Muse at the Muse Card Club.

Today’s card is a simple one with some Copic colouring of a very cute image. It’s a bit hard to tell but the main image is popped up for some dimension. I love cats…I find them so relaxing.

And before I go,  I’ll leave you with some pictures of my beloved kitty cat – Mack. He is a stylish kitty if I do say so myself, but I am biased 🙂
