Penny Black Abstract Encouragement Card

Hello! Today I am sharing a CAS encouragement card created with  Penny Black supplies.

Penny Black Abstract Encouragement Card

    • I stamped the 30-712 Words of Encouragement sentiment on to white cardstock.
    • I inked cardstock with Distress Oxide inks and cut it with the largest triangle in the 51-647 Triangles set. I used the same die to cut a frame from black cardstock.
    • I cut the 51-650 Viridescent leaves from black cardstock. Using the negative shape, I traced the leaves on to cardstock inked with Distress Oxide inks. I fussy-cut those leaves and glued them to the back of the outline. I trimmed the leaf stem to fit on the bottom of the triangle.
    • I added the triangle with its frame and the leaves to the stamped panel.
    • I embellished with a  butterfly cut with one of the dies in the #51-132 Flights of Fancy set.

  • I added alcohol inks to a Yupo panel from which I cut the smallest equilateral triangle in the 51-647 Triangles set. The dies in the set cut a solid triangle and a thin outline triangle at the same time.
  • I heat-embossed a rectangular panel (slightly larger than A2-size) with a sentiment in the 30-813 Ever Thanks set in gold. I glued the triangles to the panel, trimming the overlapping pieces off the sides.
  • From a Brushed Gold cardstock panel, measuring 4 ¾” x 6″, I cut out an A2 rectangle to make a ¼” frame for the card.

  • I die-cut the lighthouse from a variety of cardstock pieces and glued it together.
  • I stamped the Stampin’ Up sentiment on to a triangle cut with the Color Block Slices die set.
  • I added the lighthouse and stamped light ray to a patterned paper background and finished it with a frame cut with the A2 Rectangle Frames set.
