I always love these Penny black stamps. I have a hard time keeping my Marvy markers from drying out but I managed getting these to work for my card. I used Stampin up ink for the sentiment, half pearls and the purple backing.  Love this look.

Hello

It's time for a new challenge over at 

Cardz 4 Guyz #304

the theme for this challenge is

SPORT OR HOBBY

I don't do sports and my hobby is making cards, diamond painting and flowers.. so I chose flowers. I used a Hero arts stamp and using my Marvy markers inked up the stamp and then using My favorite things stitch die cut it out and the DCWV scrap. For the orange Stamping up card stock I used MFT brick stencil and Ranger ink and added a little color to give some interest. It's very light on the computer but in real it's a little darker. no much.. I stamped the sentiment . I am not sure who it's by. I used Ranger inks to give some colors.

Hello

Well this weeks my last at being a Guest Designer at

It's been a wonderful time. I've totally enjoyed my month. Thank you Krafty Chicks.

Our theme this week is 

ANY OCCASION

For this card I used a Penny Black red rubber stamp and Marvy markers and scribbled over the image and then huffed and stamped. I stamped the Simon says sentiment. I found some Pebbles Fresh designer paper and added to the side. I cut a strip of dark purple Stampin up card stock and added this to the DP.  I added some sequins and topped with some Nuvo drops to the center.

with Sympathy and love - Do-Al(l)creative #50

Monday February 14, 2021

Hello

Today we have a mid month reminder for the current challenge over at 

Do-Al(l)Creative #50

Our theme is 

CAS and SYMPATHY

I like doing CAS cards. I use to not like them but since I have some bigger simple images it makes it easier. I took the Penny Black image and some Marvy Markers and colored up the stamp and huffed it to get it wet.. (my markers are so old I was afraid it wouldn't stamp well) I then used the Simon Says sentiment and Stampin up ink.  It's done. 1,2.3.. complete.

 Challenges:

Jan'd digi stamps -Feb. - anything goes

A bit more time to craft extra - Feb - anything goes

As you like it - prefer-rubber/clear/digi (I love red rubber if it's an image as I can always cut down if not straight. For sentiment's I prefer clear so I know it's where I want it stamped if it's going right with the image.)

A gem of a challenge wk. 4 - anything goes

Use your stuff #416 - it's my favorite (using my old stamps and markers)
