Morning
Meet today's card. A simple card I made using stamps from Penny Black and a piercing tool.
Penny Black has come out with some fabulous floral images that I love to colour with my markers to get a watercolour look. This one is called Passionate.
So I began by cutting a circle mask with a Spellbinder die and my trusty Cuttlebug. Next, I positioned my stamp inside my MISTI, coloured with markers, sprayed with water and stamped. I repeated that process, adding darker shades of the purples. Leaving the mask in place, I sponged on some Distress inks to define the stamped area.
The sentiment was stamped using Memento black ink and is from the great Sentiment Collection set.
Lastly, I pierced around the outline of the circle.
Adding my card to these challenges:
Seize the Birthday- COLOURING
Creative Card Crew- ANYTHING GOES
Cuttlebug Mania- MAY FLOWERS

Thanks so very much for all the times you come to visit. I do truly appreciate all you comments and emails. I do try my best to get back to all of you but please know that if I don't get back to you right away, it is due to lack of time. I am a home daycare provider with a house filled with little people and much activity. I am often knee deep in crafts, planning, meals or just going through my busy days caring for all my little ones. It really keeps me hopping!
Supplies: stamps- Penny Black/ MISTI/ Cuttlebug/ Spellbinder die/ Memento markers/ Mini mister/ piercing tool/ applicator tool
