Penny Black Share the Love: Potted Passion

Potted Passion is what this new stamp by Penny Black is called. A really lovely image, I think, and suitable for all kinds of cards, not just Valentine's or love themed. I coloured the image with my Copic markers and added a tiny bit of white gel pen to it before die cutting the panel with Stitches of Love die. I matted the panel onto kraft cardstock as I did to the patterned papers (from the paper pad Beau Jardins) in the background. The sentiment is from the same Potted Passion mini stamp set, I stamped it onto a strip of kraft cardstock. I embellished the card with a bit of twine tied into a bow and some hearts die cut with Bear-y Much Cut Out die.

Penny Black Share the Love: Up and Away

I'm sharing the love again with a new stamp from the new Penny Black release called - yes! - Share the Love. This time I decided to make a friendship card with this sweet heart balloon image called Up and Away. I stamped it onto a panel of kraft cardstock, masked the circle around it and sponged some Distress Oxide ink to the panel to create a circular frame. I then coloured the image with my Copic markers. I heat embossed the sentiment from Snippets sentiment set onto a strip of dark brown cardstock, attached it in place and added a couple of hearts as embellishments. The hearts I die cut with Bear-y Much Cut Out die. Lastly, I adhered the panel onto a white square cardbase.

Paneelin kiinnitin valkoiselle korttipohjalle. Kaikki käytetyt leimat ja stanssit ovat Penny Blackin ja saatavilla nettikaupastaan, linkit yllä.

Penny Black Share the Love: Fur-Ever Yours & Bear-y Much

I have loads of bear-y cuteness to share today! I made two cards with two different stamps from the new Penny Black release called Share the Love, both feature a very cute bear. The circle card below features Fur-Ever Yours stamp, I just love that cute bear declaring his love with all his might! I watercoloured him and cut him out with the matching die, Fur-Ever Yours Cut Out. I stamped the sentiment from Bear-y Much stamp set, half of it onto the heart and half of it onto the white sentiment strip. I then die cut the circle cardbase and the patterned paper (from Painted Blooms paper pad) circle with regular circle dies and the white doily-looking circle with Penny Black's Stitched Square & Circles die. I tied a bit of baker's twine around the smallest circle and attached the circles and the bear in place. Using Bear-y Much Cut Out, I die cut different sized hearts out of pink cardstock and attached them in place. Lastly, I added some sticky back pearls to the hearts.

I'm entering my card to the following challenges:
* Penny Black Saturday Challenge: January - Anything Goes, optional Something New (new stamps and dies)
* Watercooler Wednesday: WWC253 - Anything Goes with a Feminine Twist

For the second card, I used the new stamp Bear-y Much. I coloured it with my watercolours as well and die cut it out using Bear-y Much Cut Out. For the background, I used some patterned paper from Beau Jardins paper pad and a panel that I die cut with the new Stitches of Love die. I used sentiment from the new sentiment set Hug Me (I only used a part of it, the whole sentiment says 'Be mine. Hug me. Kiss me.') and stamped it onto a strip of white cardstock. I embellished the card with a heart die cut with Bear-y Much Cut Out and a paper clip that I die cut with Just a Note die set.

Penny Black Share the Love: Winsome Wreath

I'm sharing the love again with new stamps from the new Penny Black release called Share the Love. This time I used the gorgeous floral wreath called Winsome Wreath - it's such a beautiful stamp and so lovely to colour. For the first card, I used the whole stamp and coloured it with my watercolours before die cutting the panel with a square die from the set Stitched Square & Circles. I then stamped the sentiment from the new Only You sentiment set inside the wreath, and matted the panel onto some dark pink cardstock before adhering it onto pale grey cardbase. I didn't add any embellishments as I wanted the stamped image to be in the spotlight.

I'm entering my card to the following challenges:
* Penny Black and More: January - Make It Feminine
* Happy Little Stampers Watercolour Challenge: January - Anything Goes
* Simon Says Stamp Monday Challenge: Something New (new stamps)

For the second card I folded my cardbase out of sturdy watercolour paper and stamped part of the wreath on the upper right hand corner before colouring it with my watercolours. I sponged some Distress Oxide ink around the stamped image and splattered a bit of purple watercolour on the card front. Lastly, I stamped the sentiment from the Grateful Sentiments set.

All stamps and dies used are by Penny Black and available in their online store:
* Winsome Wreath (40-721)
* Only You (30-666)
* Grateful Sentiments (30-547)
* Stitched Square & Circles (51-422)

Tämä uusi Penny Blackin Winsome Wreath -leima on i-h-a-n-a! Todella kaunis ja kiva väritettävä. Ensimmäiseen korttiin leimasin sen kokonaan näkyville, väritin vesiväreillä  ja stanssasin paneelin Stitched Square & Circles -setin neliöstanssilla. Tekstileima on uudesta Only You -setistä, leimasin sen kranssin keskelle. Sitten kerrostin paneelin tummanpinkille kartogille ja kiinnitin vaaleanharmaaseen korttipohjaan.

Toiseen korttiin taittelin korttipohjan vesivärikartongista ja leimasin vain osan kranssia näkyviin yläkulmasta. Väritys taas vesiväreillä, hieman Distress Oxide -mustetta leimakuvan ympärille ja perään muutama vesiväriroiske. Tekstileima on Grateful Sentiments -setistä ja sopii hyvin ystävänpäiväkorttiin.

Penny Black Share the Love: Key to Kindness, part 3

Well, I did tell you that I love the new Key to Kindness stamp set by Penny Black, didn't I? So much so that I made a third card with it! This time I used the wreath from the set, coloured it with my Copics again and fussy cut it out. Then I stamped the sentiment from the new Only You sentiment set inside the wreath and added a tiny heart inside the O, I die cut it using Hearts Galore die. I added a doily behind the wreath (now that I found them again, I'm using them all the time!) and a bit of patterned paper from the Gentle Whisper paper pad which I matted onto pale pink cardstock before adhering it to my square cardbase.

I'm entering my card to the following challenges:

Tästä uudesta Penny Blackin leimasetistä on tullut varma suosikkini, tämä on jo kolmas kortti, jonka sillä teen. Setti on siis Key to Kindness ja tällä kertaa käytin siitä tuota ihanaa kranssia. Väritin sen Copiceilla ja leikkasin irti. Kranssin sisälle leimasin tekstileiman setistä Only You ja lisäsin pienen sydämen O:n sisään, se on stanssattu Hearts Galore -stanssilla. Kranssin taustalle taas doily ja hieman kuviopaperia Gentle Whisper -paperikosta, kerrostus vaaleanpunaiselle kartongille ja sitten kiinni korttipohjaan.

Penny Black Share the Love: Key to Kindness, part 2

I love the new Key to Kindness stamp set by Penny Black so I made another card with it. I coloured the image with my Copic markers and fussy cut it out. I die cut the frame with the new Stitches of Love die set and used some patterned paper from the Gentle Whisper paper pad for the background. I stamped my sentiment from the new Hug Me sentiment set directly onto the patterned paper. I've found my love of doilies again :) so I used a doily and a bit of twine behind the stamped and fussy cut image that I adhered with foam adhesives. I finished the card by embellishing it with some sticky back pearls.

I'm entering my card to the following challenges:
* Penny Black Saturday Challenge: January - Anything Goes, optional 'Something New' (new stamps and dies)

Tämä Penny Blackin uusi leimasetti Key to Kindness on sen verran ihana, että tein sillä toisenkin kortin. Tähän käytin setin kukkasydäntä, jonka väritin Copiceilla ja leikkasin irti. Kehyksen stanssasin Stitches of Love -stanssisetin stansseilla ja taustalle käytin kuviopaperia Gentle Whisper -paperikosta, ja leimasin tekstin setistä Hug Me siihen suoraan. Leimakuvan takana käytin doilya ja hieman narua ja koristelin kortin vielä puolihelmillä. Kaikki käytetyt tuotteet ovat Penny Blackin ja saatavilla nettikaupastaan, linkit yllä.

Penny Black Share the Love: Key to Kindness

I'm sharing the love again with a card made with new stamps and dies from the new collection by Penny Black called Share the Love. This time I decided to make a shaker card the easy way so I took a cellophane bag, inserted a bit of patterned paper from the paper pad Gentle Whisper and added my sequins in there (no playing with foam adhesives needed!). I die cut the frame using the new Stitches of Love frame dies and adhered it to the shaker part. The stamped image I used is from the new Key to Kindness stamp set which is one of my faves, the florals in the set are so whimsical and pretty. I coloured the image with my Copic markers and fussy cut it out. I then heat embossed the sentiment from the new Only You sentiment set onto a strip of grey cardstock and added the pink die cut 'you' (die cut with For You die set). For the background, I used patterned paper from the paper pad Beau Jardins.

I'm entering my card to the following challenges:

Uusi kortti uusilla Penny Black -tuotteilla, feikki-shaker-kortti tällä kertaa. Feikki siinä mielessä, että en käyttänyt tähän kohotarroja tms vaan pientä sellofaanipussia, johon laitoin palasen kuviopaperia Gentle Whisper -paperikosta ja paljetit sinne sisään. Helppoa ja nopeaa! Kehyksen stanssasin Stitches of Love -setin stansseilla. Leima, jota käytin on ihanasta Key to Kindness -setistä, väritin sen Copiceilla ja leikkasin irti. Tekstileiman Only You -setistä embossasin harmaalle kartonkipalaselle ja lisäsin stanssatun 'you:n' (For You -stanssisetillä stanssattu). Taustalle hieman kuviopaperia Beau Jardins -paperikosta.

Penny Black Share the Love: Heart Border

Happy New Year and happy 'Roaring 20s'! I'm beginning my 2020 crafting with a CAS card made with new products from the new and fabulous Penny Black release called Share the Love. This is a very clean and simple card with minimal stamping so it's quick and easy to make. I first die cut a panel of white cardstock with the new frame die called Stitches of Love, I love these new frame dies, each size comes with different stitching around the edges. I then die cut the panel with a new die called Heart Border which cuts a sort of negative image on cardstock. I also die cut the Heart Border on pink cardstock so that I could get the hearts in pink. I folded my cardbase out of red cardstock and adhered the white panel on it. I then stamped my sentiment, it's from the new sentiment set called Hug Me, on the white panel and adhered the pink hearts in place. Lastly, I added a couple of tiny rhinestones in two of the hearts.

I'd like to enter my card to the following challenges:
* Penny Black Saturday Challenge: December - Anything Goes
* Allsorts Challenge: Week 51/2 - Anything Goes
* Perfectly CAS: Challenge #4 - Celebrate (celebrating Valentine's Day with this card)

* Heart Border (51-592)

* Stitches of Love (51-597)

Hyvää Uutta Vuotta ja uutta vuosikymmentä! Aloitin uuden vuosikymmenen askartelut CAS-kortilla, jossa on hyvin vähän leimailua. Stanssasin ensin paneelin valkoisesta kartongista Penny Blackin Stitches of Love -stanssisetin stanssilla. Sitten stanssasin paneeliin tuon sydänkuvion Heart Border -stanssilla, samalla stanssilla stanssasin vielä pinkkiä kartonkia, että sain pinkkejä sydämiä. Korttipohjan taittelin punaisesta kartongista ja kiinnitin siihen valkoisen paneelin, johon leimasin tekstin uuden tekstisetin Hug Me leimalla. Lopuksi kiinnitin pinkit sydämet paikoilleen ja pariin sydämeen laitoin koristeeksi pienen timantin. Kaikki käytetyt tuotteet ovat Penny Blackin ja saatavilla nettikaupastaan, linkit yllä.

Penny Black Share the Love: Tenderness

I hope you all had a lovely Christmas! With Christmas behind us now, it's time to look forward to Valentine's day and Penny Black has just released new stamps and dies that are perfect for all Valentine's day creations and the collection is aptly named - Share the Love! I'm going to Share the Love with a floral card that I made with a stamp set called Tenderness and its matching dies. All the floral stamps are from the said set, I coloured them with my Copic markers and die cut them with the matching dies. For the background I used a die called Diamond Cut, I cut it once out of white linen textured cardstock and just used the frame. Second time I die cut it out of kraft cardstock and fitted that die cut into the white frame (the white you see peeking from behind the kraft panel is my card base). I then heat embossed the stamped part of the sentiment on a strip of dark brown cardstock, the stamp that says 'I love' comes from a new stamp set called Only You. The 'You' I die cut with an older die called For You and adhered it onto the sentiment strip. I then arranged and adhered all the flowers and the sentiment strip in place.

I'd like to enter my card to the following challenges:

Penny Blackilta on tullut uusia leimoja ja stansseja, jotka sopivat teemaan hyvin. Tähän korttiin käytin uusia Tenderness-setin kukkia, jotka väritin Copiceilla ja stanssasin Tenderness Cut Out -stansseilla. Taustalle tein kehikon Diamond Cut -stanssilla. Tekstiin yhdistin uudesta Only You -tekstisetistä tuon 'I love' ja vanhemmasta stanssisetistä For You tuon 'You'n.
