Card Backlog - Penny Black Stamps

 I have recently made quite a few cards using the Penny Black Cling Stamps that I adore so much!

All of these were created using the MISTI Stamping Tool, Tombow Markers and a bit of the Stickles glitter glue to give them a bit of sparkle. I didn't get the chance to crop them all as usual, so please forgive me!  I wanted to get them all posted. The sentiments are from a variety of companies.

Card Backlog!

It has been a while since I posted cards here. I have been making them, but finding time to post them has been challenging. Therefore, I am posting a bunch of cards made in the past few months with you today.

The first card is one using a commissioned digital stamp from Hambo Stamps. I sure miss their company's stamps! The image is a caricature of the Bedford County Courthouse in Shelbyville, TN. I love that it still represents the stateliness of the courthouse without going to cartoonish!

This one features a digital image from Mo's Digital Pencil. I think it is a retired image, but I think it is so cute!

This cat card was made for my uncle's birthday. I love the cats in this set! I am not sure of the company for this one. I got it online.

This was for a friend. I believe the stamps are from an older Stampin' Up set.  Loved the colors on this one.

Another birthday card for a friend. I am pretty sure this is also an older Stampin' Up stamp. The sentiment is from Paper Smooches.

 

Creativity Saturday!

I FINALLY got around to making some cards over the weekend!  My mom needed some for some church members and I got out my MISTI and had some fun!  All are using stamps from Penny Black. To color the images, I used Tombow Dual Brush pens and to stamp the sentiments, I used VersaFine Clair inks.

I had such a good time using these Penny Black stamps, I had to get some more.  As soon as they arrive, I will be back at it!

Baby Shower Goodies

My mom and I just recently went to a baby shower for my oldest niece. I made a card and mom and I had so much fun decorating the present. If someone had recorded us, they could have made money on America's Funniest Home Videos!  I spent most of my time inside the large box trying to tie knots in the string that we used as a "clothesline." What a hoot. The present got lots of fun comments at the shower!

Card to match the present.

Our fun packaging.  Goodies both inside and out!

Wow!  I didn't realize how long it has been since I have posted anything! My life has been so busy with work. I have also started online classes to receive a certification of American Records through the National Institute for Genealogical Studies. That has kept me very busy.

I haven't had much time to be "creative," but I will try to do better. I had to look WAY back in my photos to find any that I have not yet posted. Here they are!

The first one is a birthday card for my mom. I used a Mo's Digital Pencil image and colored it with colored pencils on craft paper. Her images are absolutely some of my favorite to color!!

The next card was for my brother's birthday (I think). He loves his comfy chair and these stamps from Rosie's Roadshow seemed to fit the bill.

This last one was my Christmas/Holiday Card for 2019. I can't remember the company who made the stamp. I needed something I could do quickly as I had many to send!
