Golden Dance by Penny Black

Published on by Rowhouse Greetings1 Comment

HEY FRIENDS! I took a break from making holiday cards to color up a stamp set by Penny Black called Golden Dance. I’ve had my eye on this stamp for awhile because I love its simplicity. So I decided it was a sign when I found both the stamp AND its coordinating die while I was out shopping at Shady Lane Impressions in Pennsylvania. This is a fabulous family owned craft store located in Honeybrook, Pennsylvania. They really have a little bit of everything in stock so it was quite a shopping experience! As always, I’ve linked supplies with compensated affiliate links used where possible at no cost to you.

I stamped the image on Hammermill cardstock using Hero Arts Intense Black Ink and colored the image with Copic markers (see list below). Once the image was colored, I used the coordinating die to cut out the image.

I created an A2 top folding cardbase from Neenah Classic Crest cardstock and added a layer of design paper. I cut a piece of white cardstock using the second largest die in the Stitches of Love Rectangle die set and stamped the sentiment in the lower right corner using Versafine Clair ink in Nocturne. I applied foam adhesive squares to the back of the colored image and assembled the layers as shown.

That’s all for today!

More Fairy Godmother – Colorado Craft Company

Published on by Rowhouse Greetings1 Comment

HEY FRIENDS! Just a quick post today to show you the last of my cards for the August 2022 Anita Jeram release by Colorado Craft Company. Here I used another image from the Fairy Godmother stamp set, this time with Cinderella in all her new finery. As always, I’ve linked supplies with compensated affiliate links used where possible at no cost to you.

Today’s Project

Rowhouse Greetings | Anita Jeram Fairy Godmother by Colorado Craft Company

FAIRY GODMOTHER
Size: 4.25″ x 5.5″
Featured Products:

For this card, I stamped the image on Hammermill smooth cardstock using Hero Arts Intense Black ink. The image was colored with Copic markers (see list below). Afterwards, I fussy cut the image (although coordinating dies are available).

The background is in two parts. To start, I cut two pieces of Hammermill smooth cardstock to 4.25″ x 5.5″. For the left side of the card, I used one of the dies from the Create a Slimline Border Die Set by Spellbinders to cut an edge on the diagonal from the top left to the bottom right of the panel. I stamped the sentiment from the Fairy Godmother stamp set using Versafine Clare in Nocturne.

For the right side of the card, I used to Celestial Star Background Foil Plate by Spellbinders with Glimmer Foil in Moondust and the Glimmer Hot Foil System to create a foiled panel. I glued the background panels as shown to an A2 cardbase cut from Neenah Classic Crest cardstock. I applied foam squares to the back of the image for dimension and attached it to the front of the card as shown.

That’s all for today! See you again soon!

Featured products:

The Fairy Godmother stamp set includes 12 stamps: 6 images and 6 sentiments. The largest stamp is 3.8 x 3.25 inches and the smallest stamp is 0.25 x 0.25 inches. The stamps can be used with the coordinating Fairy Godmother die set sold separately.

For this card, I stamped the image on Hammermill smooth cardstock with Hero Arts Intense Black Ink. I colored the image with Copic markers and then fussy cut it (coordinating dies are available). I cut another piece of Hammermill cardstock to 4.25″ x 5.5″ and die cut the pattern through the center using one of the dies in the Create a Slimline Border Die Set. I repeated the pattern approximately 1/4″ from the bottom and stamped the sentiment between the patterns using Versafine Clare ink in Nocturne.

For the top, I used the Celestial Star Background Foil Plate and Glimmer Foil in Blush along with the Glimmer Hot Foil System to create the pattern across the top. I trimmed the panel down to 4″ x 5.25″ and applied foam tape to the back for dimension. I attached the panel to the front of an A2 cardbase made from Neenah Classic Crest and assembled the layers as shown.

To finish, I added Wink of Stella in Clear to the wand and crown and dots of white and silver gel pen to the dress.

Hope you enjoyed today’s project! See you again soon!
