Congrats – Penny Black Dreaming Inspiration #4

This image has an empty alt attribute; its file name is penny-black-dreaming-june-2019.jpg

Hello! I’m back again with some more Penny Black goodness from the Dreaming release.

Today’s card is a simple one – just dies and Copic markers! I used the You’re a Star creative die and die cut it several times. I then coloured in each star with Copic markers. I could have die cut the stars from coloured cardstock, but I wanted to add some shading and Copics allowed me to do that. The sentiment is from the Number 1 cut out creative die set (from the previous release). I created a thicker sentiment by adhering several black die cuts together.

I also created a matching tag. Hopefully you can see the shimmer I added onto the stars.

Good evening! Today I have a card featuring some cute Penny Black Hedgies from the latest Dreaming release. This stamp set is called Hedgie Harmony – and has some adorable musical themed images. I chose to work with the cello and had a lot of fun colouring this one. I used a mixture of Copic markers and Prismacolor pencils.

Thank You – Penny Black Dreaming Inspiration #2

Good evening! Today’s card features a new floral set from Penny Black’s Dreaming release called Flower Collection. The image is actually a bucket filled with flowers, but I decided to repeat stamp the flower portion for a totally different look.

The sentiment is from another new set called Beautiful Heart. The flowers are coloured with Copics and then I mounted the focal panel onto a blue note card. Simple, but eye-catching.

You’re Huggable – Penny Black Dreaming Inspiration #1

Hello friends. I hope your week has been a great one. I have had some crafty time playing along with some new products from Penny Black’s new Dreaming release.

Today’s card uses an adorable Penny Black critter called A Big Hug. You know how much I love these cute bears! So stinkin’ adorable. I coloured the bear and background scene with Copic markers and for something different, I white heat embossed the sentiment which is from the Huggable stamp set.

The little flower is from a stamp set called Reserved Space. It had the perfect sized flower for this scene. The clouds are a creative die called Silver Linings.

Number 1 Teacher – Penny Black Full Bloom Inspiration #6

This image has an empty alt attribute; its file name is full-bloom.jpg

I’m back with one more card using products from the Penny Black’s Full Bloom release.

Today’s card is a really clean and simple one layer card featuring a cute bear from the Number 1 stamp set. There is a coordinating die set to match this stamp set, but I didn’t use it on this project.

I stamped the image and coloured it with Copic markers. I decided to use the sentiment ‘teacher’ but there are other options in the set as well. I added some ground and then scored a border around the outside with my scoring stylus and score board. Couldn’t get any more simple than that!

With Love – Penny Black Full Bloom Inspiration #5

This image has an empty alt attribute; its file name is full-bloom.jpg

Hello! I have been busy crafting at my desk this weekend. Today’s card uses products from Penny Black’s Full Bloom release.

This bird image is from the Peaceful Time stamp set, and I stamped it in Copic friendly ink onto some Neenah solar white card stock and coloured it with Copics. I used a Spellbinders circle die to cut around the image. I did extend the branch in the image to reach the edges of the circle using a Copic multi-liner pen.

To create the impressed leaves in the background, I took two of the small leaf dies from the Peaceful Time Cut out creative die set, and repeatedly ran them through my die cutting machine, using a tan embossing mat to impress the images, rather than cut them out. This created a subtle, textured background to mount the focal image onto.
