Hello and welcome
I’m back with a reminder for the June Challenge over at Penny Black Saturday Challenge! To celebrate PBSC’s 16th Birthday this month our theme is Happy Birthday ! But as always you can play along with Anything Goes!! I hope you will have fun and help us celebrate this milestone!
As usual, we are sponsored by the awesome.
I used PB – Hollyhock Heaven stamp, which is new for me.
After stamping I did some loose watercolouring with Distress ink.
Using black card I cut an arch from Sizzix arch dies, before clear heat embossing the frame with PB – Trailing stamp.
The sentiment is from PB – Heartfelt stamp set.
The frame was added with raised tape to the card front. I love to use frames that allow the image to be the focus on the card front. I think this arch does just that.
Please head over to our blog to check out the wonderfully inspirational work by the rest of the Design Team! I hope you will find the time to join our challenge this month.
I look forward to seeing what you create! Good luck!
Thanks so much for taking the time to visit. I love to read your comments and will be sure to check out your blog.
I hope you all have a chance to enjoy some crafting time!
Cheers
Helen
