Penny Black Thank You Card

Hello my lovelies, and welcome!  Today's card is for the Penny Black Saturday Challenge mid-way post.  The theme this month is Anything goes...with the option of Black & White and one other color.  Here's my take....

Penny Black stamps:
Special Thoughts Clear Set 30-338 
Collage of Wishes
Softly 40-319 (flowers)
Promenade 25-00 (stencil/inside)

So for my 'one other color' I went with orange, trying to keep things a little seasonal.  The gray is just a lighter version of black.  That's my story!

I was going for a CAS look, but think it may be a little over for true CAS fans, since I added the verses, layers and the Studio Katia Silver Foil Pearls embellishments.  I love these embellishment pearls in silver and also in gold.  Perfect accent for so many pieces.  And super for the holidays!

For the how-to, I just stamped the flowers with Nocturne VersaMark Clair ink, then colored them with Copic markers.  I embossed the Thanks onto a scrap white panel, layered that onto black, then onto a white A2 card front.



I embossed the 'for all you do' from the same set, with white on black, and added that with foam tape.  Then the embellies for the finishing touch.



Inside:  Stencil with distress inks, and the gratitude stamp.
