Penny Black Painter's Vase Card


Here's a quick and simple card that looks very elegant. Stamps used are from Penny Black Rubber Stamps.

1. Color 3859H Corner Piece with a Tombow Yellow Gold (#26) marker. Huff on it and then stamp on the top left and repeat for the bottom left. Repeat as you stamp in the middle of the right side twice.

2. Color the Painter's Vase stamp with markers. I used Pale Yellow (#62), Persimmon (#835), Port Red (#757), Avocado (#98) and Dark Jade (#177). Before stamping, mist the stamp gently with water. It helps to hold the stamp about 6-8 inches away and mist at an angle, not directly on the stamp (otherwise it will smear your colors).

3. Add stickles glitter glue to accent the flower and any other part of the card that you want to highlight.

4. Mount on cardstock as pictured. The vase was mounted on a piece of gold paper and then on top of a yellow Hanko Tsumugi cardstock and then finally on a red Hanko Tsumugi card.
