Penny Black Buddy and Duck Birthday Card

Hello and welcome back! Athena here with a birthday card to share with you, using the cutest little duckling from the Penny Black Buddy and Duck stamp set.



I knew from the beggining that I wanted to color my image with copic markers, so I stamped it with Memento Tuxedo Black ink that is copic friendly, doesn't bleach or smear. The colors I used are:

Baloon: RV11, RV13, RV14
Duck: Y35, Y15, Y13, Y11
Duck's beak and feet: YR07, YR04, Y17



Next, I fuzzy cut my image leaving a white border all around and started working on the background. For that I used Worn Lipstick Distress Ink and a cloud stencil and with a blending tool I loosely added color onto my panel. I stamped the sentiment from the stamp set and foam mounted the panel onto a standard A2 card base before adhering the duck with foam squares.

As a final touch I went all over the baloon with glossy accents and added droplets of Nuvo Morning Due here and there. They look like bubbles to me!



There are six images in this stamp set and they are all super adorable and so fun to color. I'm definately going to use it for a few more birthday cards. I hope I've inspired you to give it a try!

Have a nice and crafty week and I'll see you soon!

New baby girl congratulations card | Using small images

Hello everyone and welcome back! Athena here today to share a quick and simple yet sweet card to make for a newborn baby girl. For my card I used only one stamp image (the cute bow) from the Waffle Flower Popping In stamp set.



So let's jump right into the details. I started by cutting a piece of white card stock slightly smaller than a standard A2 card. Then I got my score board and scored a few lines from top to bottom to add some interest. I really liked the look of this dry embossing technique  and I'm surely going to use it again!
I masked off a line near the bottom where I stamped and white heat embossed the sentiment from the stamp set. In the same area I blended some Worn Lipstick Distress Oxide. Sprinkled a few droplets of water with my fingers, let it oxidize for a couple of seconds and dumped with a dry paper towel before I removed the masking tape.



I continued by adding a few splotches of the same Worn Lipstick diluted with water (I used a water brush for that).
To color my image I used the Worn Lipstick Distress Marker and my Wink of Stella clear pen used as a water brush. My bow is really glittery and shiny, not easy to capture in day light, but so pretty in real life! I used the matching dies to cut the image and foam squares to attach it onto the blended area.
The whole panel was then foam mounted onto a standard A2 gray card base. As a final touch, I adhered a few sequins here and there and stamped one of the other images included in the set on a piece of white card stock adhered on the inside of my card. I used the same Distress Oxide for my stamping here.



I hope I've inspired you to use the dry embossing technique (it really adds a lot to an otherwise plain background) and give your small images a chance. There are so many of them in every single stamp set!
Have a great week and I'll see you soon!
