Cardmaking and Scrapbooking with Jean Manis
Eek! It’s just two days from Halloween! I made one more Halloween card with Penny Black stamps and dies.
The card design is from Scrapbook & Cards Today CardMaps Today Volume 4 and is a good one for using patterned paper.

I’m delighted to be over at the Penny Black blog all this week with Halloween-themed cards and projects. Head on over to check out the Day 1 and Day 2 projects.
Playing along with colourQ #264 challenge which is another perfect color combination for a Halloween card.
I combined die cuts from the Penny Blacks sets – 51-077 eeek! (the sentiment), 51-073 haunted hollow (the house) and 51-076 spider’s internet (the spider webs) for my CAS card.
Today, I’m sharing a holiday card using the Penny Black 51-089 Tree of Joy word art die.
I cut the Tree of Joy out of a brushed silver cardstock and inlaid it into a square red cardstock panel. I secured the inlaid pieces on the back with tape. The panel was adhered to a white cardstock panel that I had misted with silver spray using the Penny Black 25-009 Snow Dance stencil. The card base, measuring 5 1/4″ is also brushed silver cardstock.
I’m playing along with Freshly Made Sketches again this week. I had fun combining several Penny Black stamp sets for the focal image, adding patterned paper, a strip of dry embossed cardstock and metallic twine to finish off the card.
I heat-embossed stamped images from three Penny Black sets: the cute scene is from 30-266 Gleeful; the sentiment is from 30-257 Joy Filled; and the snowflake is from the 30-255 Most Wonderful set.
