Penny Black



I've had this card made for a while and just never got around to sharing it until today. I used a Penny Black image that was colored with Copics and cut it with a Lil Inker stitched rectangle die. I made the mat with a snippet of daffodil cardstock and added a black border done with a Martha Stewart doily punch. The honeycomb dsp was a snippet of dsp from my overflowing box and the teeny flowers were done with a retired SU! mini flower punch, dotted with black stickles in the centers. I left the sentiment off so I can use this for an all occasion card. I thought it was perfect for a summer card.


Thanks for checking in and I hope you have a great weekend!

This is such a darling image and so super cute the way you colored it. And, I love the layout of your card. I have to remember to use my Martha Stewart punches more often too. Soon I am going to have start purging again but I might want to keep those punches at least.

This is a pretty card, Carol. Perfect for any occasion.
I like to have some on hand that are generic in use, as they can be pressed into whatever use we have need of!
