Welcome back
I hope you’ve had a great weekend.
I’m back to share my card using Penny Black ‘The Look of Love’ which is a wood block stamp.
Using Distress Ink to colour the image, I stamped it 3 times across a small piece of cardstock. I smoothed the colour with water and a brush, before adding some black and red ink splatters.
The bottom section features card embossed with EF – ‘In Stitches’ from Craft Concepts. After embossing, the 2 sections were joined and added to black card with a narrow border, and the card front.
A thin strip of card was coloured with the red Distress Ink, added to a black strip, before covering the join. The sentiment from Penny Black ‘Heartfelt Thanks’ was then stamped in the bottom corner.

Absolute CAS perfection Helen. The way you stamped that flower is so nicely placed. Love the embossing and how your card has come together beautifully. The splatters are a great finisher.
