Penny Black Christmas Cards


A penny black image coloured with ProMarkers. I embossed the pieces of card with a cuttlebug folder then used cut dry foam and ink to add some soft colour. The snowflake is made using spellbinders build a snowflake die set.



I really like making these easel style cards and they're so easy and just a bit different. The image is coloured again with PM's. I used Kathy's sketch from this weeks CB challenge, just turned it round.


Again I used a cuttlebug embossing folder, the image coloured again with PM's, the snowflakes are cut with a punch.

I used Kathy's sketch from CB again for this card, I love the sketch and its lovely to work with.
