BB Christmas Peace

Just a quick card that I have created for Bizzy Bec's using a sweet Penny Black image called Holly Jolly.

The image has been coloured in with Copic Markers.

Here is my card:

The sentiment is from the SU Stylish Christmas stamp set and has been stamped in SU Real Red ink.

Then die cut using the Large Petra Oval die and added a little ink to the embossing with SU Sahara Sand.

I also added some snowflakes stamped in SU Real Red ink.  The snowflakes are from the SU Beautiful Blizzard stamp set.

Here is a close up of the sentiment and image:

Super cute and super quick card.

Have a wonderful day and hope you are having fun creating your Christmas cards.

BB In the Spotlight

The dies used were from SU Square Framelits and Spellbinders Nestablilities Captivating Squares collection.

Here is a close up of the spotlight image:

The image and the squares were layered up with SU Dimensionals.

The sentiment is from the SU Beautiful Promenade set and stamped in Fresh Fig ink Whisper White cardstock.

The sentiment was punched out with the SU retired Ticket Punch.

Skin: E0000, 000, 00, 11, R21

BB Birthday

I have created a card with using some Penny Black flower images from the Bouquets stamp set and added just a touch of colour.

First I stamped the flowers on SU Think Whisper White cardstock and then again on normal Whisper White cardstock.  The images were stamped in Memento Tuxedo Black ink.

The second images stamped on the normal SU cardstock have a touch of colour using SU Blender Pens and the ink is SU Rose Red.

This is my card:

The colour looks a little patch in the photo but there are a few layers of colours creating a light and dark shades.

I was going to layer the two images together but the look just wasn't right so I added some SU Rose Red cardstock to the sides.

The diecut which frames the sentiment is from Marianne Design Large Petra Oval collection.  

The cardstock is SU Rose Red.

The sentiment is from the Penny Black Happy Thoughts stamp set.  Stamped in SU Rose Red ink and then diecut using a die from the SU Ovals collection and I daubered a little ink on the edges.

And the sequins just filled in a little of the white space.
