I was looking for some ideas to make a quick and simple birthday card. Voila! I cam upon the Clean and Simple (CAS) Colour & Sketch Challenge #222. I just received this Penny Black Stamp and decided to see how I could combine the stamp design and challenge.
Penny Black Stamp: Collage of Wishes 40-385
Memory Box Distressed Windham Collage Die 30041
VersaMark ink
The Ton embossing powder in Rose Gold
Ranger Archival Ink in black
Spectrum Noir Sparkle Pens: Peony, Red Berry, Holly Leaf; Moonlight
Tombow Markers: blue, orange
Kraft Card Stock (stamped image)
Mirricard Card Stock in Copper (A2 card base) and Blue (die cut panel)
Detail Cutting Scissors
Stamp the image with VersaMark on kraft card stock; heat emboss with Rose Gold embossing powder. Color the floral mage with the Red Berry Sparkle pen; color the butterfly with Tombow markers and then lightly go over the top of it with the Red Berry Sparkle pen. Color the borders of the stamped image with the Peony Sparkle pen. Color the background around the flowers with the Moonlight Sparkle pen. Using archival ink, stamp the sentiment that comes with the floral image.
Heat set. Fussy cut around the stamped image.
Use the textured collage die on blue Mirricard card stock cut to 2-5/8" wide and 4" long. Adhere the the die cut to the A2 card base with 1/8" and 1/4" double-sided adhesive; adhere the stamped image to overlap the die cut.
