Hi everyone. Back again today with some more sweet new images from
Penny Black's new release - Timeless.
My first card I'm sharing uses watercolouring with Zig Clean Clear Markers. I stamped the sweet image (
30-543 flower teddy) in permanent black ink and set the ink with my heat tool before colouring. I used zigs and a water brush to watercolour and then fussy-cut the image. I popped the teddy over top of a paper towel transfer background I had in my stash. I made this with transferring ink from a mop-up paper towel onto a card front.
Isn't this little guy the cutest??!!
Here's a close-up ...
For the second card, this is a pretty, CAS card that was fun and easy to make. I used one of the silhouette images from
30-563 floral silhouette. I
lightly stamped the flower head randomly over the background of my main panel. Then inked the whole image again, spritzed with a little water, and stamped over top. I cut the image with the
51-517 square frames die. Inlaid my coloured panel to the frame and then added a second die-cut white frame over top. A simple stamped sentiment,
30-560 from the garden, stamped in matching blue, finishes the card.
... and a closer look ...
I hope you've enjoyed the cards from today.
Thanks for stopping by for a visit!

Your coloring on that little bear is just so perfectly done! I swear you just get better and better with that. Shadows and highlights are beautiful. Love the framed flowers too- another die going on my wish list (sigh). Both cards are just beautiful!
ReplyDeleteSuch a sweet bear image colored beautifully! And, lovely colors for your darling card!
ReplyDeleteOh, I do love that teddy bear - so sweet! And beautifully coloured. And of course I love the second card - gorgeous shades of blue - and perfect framing with that great new die!
ReplyDeleteOh that little Teddy Bear is adorable! You've created such a sweet card, Loll. I love that 'paper towel' background; the texture it gives is fabulous! Pretty in green too. And your second card is simply stunning. Those blues are so pretty, and I'm pretty sure that that frame is going to have to go in one of my carts really, really soon, lol!! Two just wonderful cards, my friend. Have a great weekend. xo Bev
ReplyDeleteTwo lovely cards, Loll. The image on your first card is so sweet and the design on your second card is just beautiful. xx
ReplyDeleteYour first card is super cute Loll and the most adorable image...Love the oversized bouquet of flowers and the 'tiny' bear x Such a delicate second card...Loving the soft background and that ever so pretty flower stamp. The die cut rectangle looks great too, along with the blue stamped sentiment to match. Wonderful CAS cards and fabulous inspiration Loll x.

the bear is adorable Loll, I love your colouring and that kitchen roll background is spectacular.
ReplyDeleteLove that rectangular die so pretty as a frame :)
The little bear is so adorable and the soft mop-up paper towel background is perfect for the image, Loll! Love the way you inked up the background/how you left the white space. The lightly stamped flowers on the background of the second card are so pretty and delicate. The frame die is super cool. I may find it in my shopping cart someday. ;-)

Sweet image of that bear and bouquet. Your watercoloring looks amazing! You sure are talented, Loll and I so enjoy seeing what you create!
ReplyDeleteThis latest release from PB is gorgeous. I love the cute little bear and you've coloured him beautifully. The floral image on your second card looks so pretty and delicate, and the die cut frame shows it off beautifully xx
ReplyDeleteOMGosh! Your cards are so beautiful Loll! I love that little teddy bear and you have watercolored him to perfection! I need lessons on watercoloring with my Zigs to achieve this look! I love the paper towel background, it gives texture and beauty. Your second card is elegant! I love the flower, reminds me of Queen's Ann Lace, which I love. That frame is just beautiful too, I'm in love with it! Hugs, Brenda
ReplyDeleteBeautiful backgrounds on both cards, Loll! I love how you colored the teddy bear and his sweet bouquet and how you framed out those gorgeous blooms on your 2nd card! Once again, you have really showcased your new PB goodies to perfection!
ReplyDeleteWhen I saw this card on the PB blog, without delving into the content, I knew it was your work, Loll. You rarely use characters to confide, but the background is characteristic of you. I love this technique and this card. I am glad that you have introduced new elements to your cards.
ReplyDeleteThe second card in your beautiful elegant style.
Hugs,
