Hi there. I'm so glad you stopped by!
I'm guest designing again for the Penny Black Saturday Challenge.
It's always such a pleasure to join this team!
The challenge is Anything Goes with the Option of Christmas.
I opted for Christmas...
In the MISTI, I inked the stamp and pressed the Cones and Berries on
mixed media paper and used a damp waterbrush to get the ink moving.
When it was totally dry, I inked the whole stamp with VersaMark ink and heat embossed
with clear powder giving the image an icy feel.
The sentiment has been cut from foil and stacked twice for added dimension.

ReplyDeleteThis such a peaceful card...like that PB stamp a lot. The touches of red and the sentiment done with brass foil work together so well.
ReplyDeleteI just don't know how you'll find an envelope to accommodate that real pinecone, Bonnie... wait, it's stamped?? WOW is this a beauty!

Absolutely perfect for Christmas or a winter card! Always love your cards...
ReplyDeleteLove that stamp - haven't used it for a couple of years so really must get it out soon. Your colouring and subtle watercolour look is fabulous, and a great idea to heat emboss over it.
ReplyDeleteThis is beautiful Bonnie and I love the rustic look of the branches and the snowy cones and wonderful red berries, and finished with that gold foiled die cut sentiment which finishes it so so well. x
ReplyDeleteGorgeous! Penny Black has the prettiest images and you've colored it beautifully!
