Hand Penned Anniversary Card




Happy Sunday!

I simply love this card because it was so easy to make! 

I made this card for my Grandparents 70th Anniversary. 

I stamped the Hand Penned Petals in Memento Black Ink then colored the image using 2021-2023 In Color Stampin’ Blends markers. 

I used the matching die to cut out the image then I layered that on top of some Pansy Petals Designer Series Paper.

I used the Scallop Contour Dies to cut mat layers in Soft Succulent and Basic White. I placed them on an Evening Evergreen card base 5 1/2” x 8 1/2” scored at 4 1/4”.

I used another die cut label for my sentiment and stamped that on in Evening Evergreen ink.

Hello Daisy Garden Card




I finally tried Stampin' Up!'s Watercolor Pencils and I absolutely love them.  This was an easy and fun card to make.

I embossed the Daisy Garden Background Stamp with Versamark and White Embossing Powder on a 4 1/4" x 11" Crumbcake Card Base scored at 5 1/2",

I colored the image in using various colors of Watercolor Pencils.  

For my sentiment I stamped the word Hello from the Create With Friends Stamp Set in Fresh Freesia and flicked some Fresh Fressia Ink onto the Basic White Cardstock using a Stampin' Write Marker.  I punched out the sentiment using the Double Oval Punch.

I punched out a mat using In Color Shimmer Vellum and popped these up using Dimensionals.
