Penny Black - Refresh

Hi everyone.  Today's card uses one of the dies from the latest release at Penny Black, called Refresh (51-817).

I absolutely adore these lovely flowers in three different sizes.  I die-cut them from mixed media paper and sponged with Distress Inks (Mustard Seed, Spiced Marmalade, Carved Pumpkin).  I mounted them over top of a die-cut and embossed background panel (Semi-Circle Stackers 51-706), popping up the panel with foam for added dimension.  To finish this CAS design, I stamped the sentiment (Super Day 31-044) in Gathered Twigs Distress Ink and used my white Posca pen to add small dots to the flower centers.

Many Thanks

Hi everyone.  It's great to be back on-line after moving houses and being "unplugged" for a few weeks. :)

Today I'm sharing a card I made for Emily.  She has been walking Jessie for a few years and we will miss her.  I used one of the images from Daisy Darlings from Penny Black, stamped in black and watercoloured with Distress Inks (Mustard Seed, Ripe Persimmon, Brushed Corduroy, Gathered Twigs, and Mowed Lawn).  The sentiment is from the Happy Snippets (Penny Black) stamp set.

I kept this card CAS (clean and simple) as the image is so darn adorable ... and I wanted it to be the focus. :)

Thanks for stopping by!
