Hoppy Day!


Sorry...I couldn't resist titling this blog post with Hoppy Day since that is the name of this adorable Penny Black stamp! It's from their newest Cling Mount Slapstick collection. If you haven't seen them you MUST go look. They are all so stinkin' cute!

I stamped it on watercolor paper using Onyx Black Versafine ink, embossed with JudiKins Detail Clear embossing powder, then colored with Tombow Markers .

The designer paper is from Pink Paislee . The cardstock is Prismatics Nautical Blue Medium and Classic Red . May Arts Red Burlap String was used to thread the buttons and tie the bow.

I appreciate you taking the time to stop by my blog today. I hope you all have a terrific Thursday!

You know how I love Penny Black! Michelle, this card is just precious. And I agree with Gabriela, you are a master with Tombows. I've been trying to achieve a watercolor affect with my Copics. I love the background dp, it frames this card beautifully. Everything about this card says "all-boy and very cute".

Your cards are absolutely spot on! I love the Tombow method and find it so much more relaxing. Thank you for helping us learn how to use the Tombows. This card should be framed for a little boy's room.
