Do you have sets with images you just love to color? That's how I feel about Penny Black! I have a dozen or so 'every day' images and at least that many Christmas-y ones that I just never tire of! So that's what today's makes are all about!
It all began when I made a birthday card for a friend - it's winging its way to her as I speak so I won't share that one YET! But before the set got put away, another card was born... then another with a different PB set, then another! You get the picture.
Let's start with one I CAN share: Penny Black's Friendship - in fact it's heading to Freshly Made Sketches #628 and made with Narelle's fun sketch in mind...
I have a friend in need of a little pick me up and these guys surely
do it for me when my spirits need lifting!
Okay... you know I'm all about the birds... this one from Peaceful Time will head to Time Out #259 for their 'Birds of a Feather' co-challenge with the JUGS gals.
My coloring panel of mixed media paper was a bit short of a full front panel, so I just added
another under it... I ran them together through my machine
with one of my favorite debossing plates - sorry it isn't available any longer - sniff, sniff - and mopped up all the leftover inks on my glass mat. I love the colors that resulted.
A sweet little postage stamp die from Wplus9 was a good place to tweet a greeting.
Card #3 is heading to the sweet gal that sent me this darling pink embossed panel... it came out a little differently than I'd planned during out chat, Lisa!
This bunny comes from the set, Special Friends, that got the ball rolling today.
I'll share that birthday card as soon as I know it has been
delivered to the birthday girl! I love it stamped in brown - and how
can a girl go wrong with brown + pink? An inked embossing folder
gave this big Waffle Flower Crafts [Nesting] egg a very pretty chocolate pattern.
Miss Bunny brought her own little egg to the party, too. It took a dip
in the leftover pink puddle and was also treated to that debossing - still love
that sweet little heart that shows up in this Lil Inker plate.
And with that, I don't need to say another thing! Except thanks so much for stopping by, my friends! Happy weekend!
