A days worth of cardmaking

Hi there -

This afternoon I checked out some challenges. I selected a new Penny Black stamp (Harmony) to play with, and made several cards with different mediums.  Its a photo heavy post with 4 cards for 7 challenges.  An afternoon well spent.






This card is for AAA Cards, 1 Sentiment + Die Cut, Coloring with Copic Pens,  stamped image.  It also goes to the Penny Black Saturday Challenge Anything Goes and Addicted to Stamps and More make your mark.

     





This one goes to CAS on Friday  prompt requires heat or dry embossing.  I stamped and heat embossed the image. Then colored with watercolor pens.  I thought it needed something more so I dry embossed the entire panel with an SU wood plank embossing folder.  It reminds me of a wood fence with a lovely flower mural painted on it.   This also goes to Time Out Challenge - Inspired by words.

   For your blog  






This card goes to  The Flower Challenge - Anything Goes and to the Penny Black Saturday Challenge anything goes.
  

And my final card goes to If you give a crafter a cookie.  I loved the idea of the round cookie having all the bold colors.  So, I made a spotlight card with the round "cookie" being the spotlight.


Thanks so much for hanging in and stopping by.
