Cardmaking and Scrapbooking with Jean Manis
Today, I’m sharing a card created with the new Penny Black Bon Voyage #30-224 stamp set – perfect for summer travel cards or scrapbook layouts!
I paired the stamped and Copic-colored Vespa with balloons cut using the Uplifting #51-004 die set. I cut each balloon twice and used dimensional adhesive on some to create a variety of depths. The balloon strings were drawn by hand.
Have a fabulous Friday!
The most recent challenge at Stamp Nation is to use Fruits and/or Veggies on a card in celebration of all summer has to offer! This challenge had me stumped for a while, until I noticed that I had more supplies that fit this theme than I realized!
I stamped the Lawn Fawn Make Lemonade set with Memento ink on Gina K cardstock and colored the images with Copics in blues and yellows. I discovered some Little Yellow Bicycle patterned paper in my stash that I’ve had for several years. The sentiment is from the Penny Black Friendship set.
I’ve been playing with the new Penny Black Krafty Kats release, and today, I’m sharing a holiday tag created with one of the images from the 30-241 Good Day! stamp set.
This particular image could also be used for a birthday tag (with different colors on the wrapping paper and ribbon). I stamped and heat embossed the image on watercolor paper and colored it with a combination of watercolor pencils and Distress Inks. I die cut the image with the large die tag from the 51-007 Tagged and then added the “Merry” sentiment, die cut from the Love & Joy [#51-021] set. To finish off the tag, I stamped the “For You” from Blooming Tags [#30-228] on a small punched tag.
I’m over on the Penny Black Blog today with another card featuring one of the new Krafty Kats stamps.
I stamped and heat embossed the cat and sentiment on watercolor paper, and then watercolored the cat with Faber-Castell watercolor pencils and Distress Inks. I cut the panel with a rectangular die cut and attached it to a cellophane bag. The bag is attached directly to the card panel, which I stamped with the Dotted Fusion background stamp. The die cut tag, with a gift card attached, slips into the cellophane bag.

Happy July to you! I’m over on the Penny Black Blog today with a card featuring one of the new Krafty Kats stamps.
I stamped and heat embossed the cat on watercolor paper and colored with both Faber-Castell watercolor pencils and Distress Inks. The Hooray sentiment was cut three times with the die for added depth. The orange balloon is attached with dimensional adhesive.
The Krafty Kats release will be featured all week on the Penny Black Blog – be sure to check out the inspiration there!
