Penny Black | Bliss 2017 Collection | Spotlight 3

Hello everyone! This month, I’m back with more cards for Penny Black featuring stamps and dies from their newest BLISS 2017 catalog. The newest flower stamps are beautiful! Check the catalog to see all other flower sets.

Here is my newest creation and I’m showcasing the 40-507 Awaken slapstick stamp:




This is such a wonderful flower stamp. And it’s a versatile set too because you can also use a portion of the image as I did. Here you can see the entire image:  



I stamped the flower with black ink onto white cardstock, colored it with Copic markers and cut it out with scissors. I die cut a circle from white cardstock and mounted it to the bottom of a top-folded kraft card base with foam pads. I trimmed the excess that extended over the edge. I adhered the flower with foam pads to the white circle. I stamped the birthday sentiment from the 30-283 Snippets sentiment set with black ink on white cardstock and cut it out. I fixed the label on top of the flower with foam pads too. To finish off the card, I added Wink of Stella clear shimmer over the petals. It shines and it looks amazing (unfortunately, you can’t see the shimmer on the picture)! 





For more inspiration, don’t forget to check the Penny Black blog and the Penny Black Simplicity blog.

Have a wonderful day and see you later this week for more Penny Black spotlights…
