Hello! Today I am sharing a spring-themed card created with Penny Black supplies, new and old. As I mentioned in this post, featuring a card of the same design, I have been watching the video series created by Jill Foster for Penny Black, which has been incredibly instructive.
- Using the two largest Stitched Frames dies, cut frame from white cardstock. (This set cuts on the inside and creates a cut pattern on the outside. By using the two dies together, I get a frame with the cut pattern on the frame.)
- Ink white cardstock panel with Tumbled Glass and Mowed Lawn. Stamp Flower Teddy sentiment with VersaFine Onyx ink. Trim panel and adhere frame to top. Add assembly to yellow card base.
- Cut Watering Can elements and tulips from Arches Cold Press watercolor paper. Color with watercoloring medium and colors of choice (some of the markers that I used to color the watering can and tulip blooms are listed below). I used the May Green Pitt Artist Pen to color the greenery and stems. Trim tulips as needed and add to inside of the watering can.
- Add assembly to card with foam adhesive.
The coloring on the watering can looks so real! My mother had one that looked just like that. Cute card!
