Penny Black

Good Morning and Happy Sunday!!  Laurie here to share a friendship card using products from Penny Black! I must admit that I don’t own a lot of PB product but intend to remedy that! I think Penny Black is well known for their gorgeous floral cling stamps but they have amazing and super cute people and critter images, too!!

I started by inking up a background panel using the Cloud Stencil and the Drifts and Hills stencil, both from My Favourite Things.  I used good ‘ol regular Distress Inks in Mowed Lawn and Tumbled Glass.

I stamped, coloured and fussy cut (even between the spokes on the tires!!!) one of the cute images from the Let’s Play Stamp Set.  I really wanted the background to show through the different areas of the bicycle, that’s why I did so much cutting!!

I popped the little girl up with foam adhesive and tried to make it look like she was on her way down the hill!  I stamped a sentiment from the Penny Black Choose Happy Stamp Set directly onto the panel using Versafine Nocturne Ink and used a piece of craft foam to adhere the panel to the card base.

To add some shine, I used Nuvo Crystal Glaze on the balloons and basket and Glossy Accents on some of the smaller areas of the bicycle.  I find the Nuvo Glaze easier to use in larger areas and Glossy Accents on tinier areas. I also decided to add a few Nuvo Crystal Cloud Circles.

And that’s my project for today!! Please check out the huge array of Penny Black products in the SNS Shop!!

Have a great week!!
