Reminder Penny Black Saturday Challenge

Hi everyone.  I'm back with a second card as Guest Designer at PBSC July, Anything Penny Black Goes with an optional theme of "The Great Outdoors".
For today's card I used Peaceful Moment (Penny Black), stamped in black and heat embossed in clear.  I then sponged three colours of distress inks for the sunset (Mustard Seed, Peacock Feathers, Abandoned Coral).  I mounted my panel onto my card front and added a simple sentiment (Happy Snippets - Penny Black) at the bottom.  Fun and easy card!

Close-up ...
I've had so much fun being part of this month's challenge.  I've enjoyed checking out each fabulous entry to get a closer look.  :)

There's still lots of time to play along if you haven't already done so.

And thanks again to the PBSC team for letting me join them this month!

  1. I think clear EP over black stamping is the way to go Loll, I just get black bits all over even when I attack the card with tons of anti static powder!! Love your sunset against the silhouetted branches. :)
