Hi
My second post tonight is to share a couple of cards I made when I unfortunately found myself in need of some Sympathy cards in a hurry. They feature Penny Black wood block ‘Butterfly Ball’ stamp.
The first is inked in Momento Danube Blue Ink and lightly spritzed before stamping. I made matching strips and mounted it on a card front embossed with a Cuttlebug embossing folder.
The second uses the same stamp set embossed in silver on a piece of watercoloured paper I found in my stash. I like the colour variation.
I decided to enter the second card in the Curtain Call Inspiration Challenge – May- Flutter, CASology cue card – Week 247, CAS Mix Up May 2017 – Stamping + Splattering+ Your choice and STAMPlorations CAS Card Challenge – Anything CAS Goes – Optional Feminine Colours.
Thanks
Helen
