Well for once my procrastination has paid off. I planned to make this card for Operation Write Home's Sunday Sketch Challenge #44 but couldn't seem to get to it... Then I saw that today's Mid Week Throwdown was for a Valentine card so I was able to combine the two. Anyone who's familiar with Penny Black stamps probably recognizes this dog as one, I have to admit I think he's really cute and I have a few of them ... It's a big stamp and I haven't used it before but it was perfect for the sketch challenge which required one. I paper pieced the heart because it's my new favorite thing to do and used copics on the rest. My other favorite new thing is Glossy Accents, which I used on the two small hearts and his nose. The paper is from a large stack of holiday papers I picked up somewhere along the way. This card and another just like it will be going into the Archway Cookie Challenge which I'm still working on but plan to get in the mail soon since they're due by December 1st which unfortunately as we all know is coming faster than we're ready for - Joanne M

ReplyDeleteThat sure is a cute stamp and you're right, it's hard to use those big stamps. You did a great job.
ReplyDeleteA very cute card and I love the dog! The big stamp is perfect for the sketch too. Thanks for playing along in our Valentine challenge at Operation Write Home this week!
ReplyDeleteWhat a cute card. I haven't seen Penny Black stamps now I will need to go google them.
