Penny Black – CAS XOXO Valentine

Hello! Today I am sharing a CAS Valentine’s Day card created with Penny Black supplies from previous love-themed releases, as I eagerly await products from their newest release.

Penny Black - CAS XOXO Valentine

  • I gold heat-embossed the 30-667 Love Language sentiment on red cardstock. The sentiment is a multi-line one, which I masked.
  • I die-cut 51-486 Stitched XOXO from white cardstock through which I added an arrow, cut from gold cardstock with the 51-594 Doodles of Love die set.
  • I added the assembly to a white textured card base.

Penny Black – Hope Blooms

Hello! Today I am sharing a CAS encouragement or friendship card created with Penny Black supplies. Despite the pandemic (our state is under stay-at-home orders until early May), the flowers are blooming, the birds are chirping, and the sun is out.

Penny Black - Hope Blooms

    • I stamped a sentiment from the #30-703 Blooming Sentiments set in black ink on blue cardstock and cut the panel with a 3 1/2″ square die.
    • I cut the tree and flowers with the #51-596 Bird and Branch set. I adhered the tree to the square and trimmed as necessary. I added the flowers with glue.
    • I die-cut the birds using the #51-094 Tweets and #51-050 Tweet Things sets and added them to the panel with foam adhesive.
    • The 4 1/4″ square card base is Bazzill Orange Peel cardstock.

Penny Black Rustic Birdhouse

Hello! Today, I am sharing a Thank You card featuring the Penny Black Rustic Birdhouse die set.

Penny Black Rustic Birdhouse

  • I cut the birdhouse from cardstock, including Lawn Fawn Paper Bag (post and birdhouse trim). Lighter colors such as SU Crumb Cake were too light. I sponged Brushed Corduroy Distress Ink on the edges of the trim and post. I cut the bird from SU Blueberry Bushel and the body of the birdhouse from SU So Saffron.
  • I cut the flowers with dies in the Penny Black Hanging Plants and A Garden sets (SU Poppy Parade with SU Daffodil Delight centers).
  • I stamped the sentiment on the card background (SU Pool Party).
  • I used the Spellbinders July 2019 Small Die of the Month kit – Spellbinders – “Besties Forever” – to cut the grass (SU Garden Green). I tried a lighter green for the back row of grass but it just didn’t work with the colors. I’ve also discovered that Penny Black now has a grass edge die 51-549 Garden Edgers.

Pinspired Challenge #23

For my card, I was inspired by the color scheme of bright blue, red and white in the inspiration image, as well as the holiday theme.

Challenge23

I stamped Penny Black’s Crystal Pattern [40-162] background stamp with Bahama Blue ink for my background, onto which I added the die cuts. Yes, this card does look a lot like the tags I shared last week! (I actually had this card made several weeks ago for this challenge.) I’ve gotten a lot of mileage out of those birch die cuts.
