Hi There, it’s Stephanie<\/a> here today.<\/p>\n

Welcome to Day 1 of our Blog Hop with Penny Black Stamps<\/a>!<\/p>\n

I want to show you my first christmas card I made this year using a beautiful stamp of Poinsettia from Festive Florals<\/a> and a script stamp “Merry Christmas” from Joy Filled<\/a> set from Penny Black and E-Z Dots\u00ae Permanent – Refillable<\/a> and Crafty Foam Tap<\/a>e from Scrapbook Adhesives by 3<\/span>L\u00ae<\/sup>.<\/p>\n

Here we go, I have a tutorial for you.<\/p>\n

\"Stephanie_karte_PennyBlack_2\"<\/a><\/p>\n

1 – I love to create my own backgrounds for cards and layouts. If you also love to create with paint, cut a piece of watercolor paper in 11,7×17,2 cm and use some blue and beige acrylic paint with a sponge to give the background of the card a little bit texture. Splash a little bit with red paint.<\/p>\n

2 – Stamp the motife of the Poinsettia twice with a Big Brush Pen.<\/p>\n

3 – Cut out a hole motife and only one flower and some leaves and give the middle point some Stickles glitter.<\/p>\n

4 – Use\u00a0 red Neocolor II (or other watercolor paint) to give the flower red color. I only colored one flower.<\/p>\n

5 – Make three lines with Washi Tape at the upper right corner in matching colors.<\/p>\n

6 – Stamp your text or wish on a white piece of paper and cut it out.<\/p>\n

7 – Use Crafty Foam Tap<\/a>e to adhere the text over the washi tape. It gives a nicely 3D effect.<\/p>\n

8 – Distress the edges of the text stripe.<\/p>\n

9 – Cut out a piece of chipboard twice as large as the card and gives 1mm more on each side. Then use your cutting pad to make a cut at the middle. The chipboard is thick enough not to cut. It will be like a book cover.<\/p>\n

10 – Now use washi tape to enclose the folded edge.<\/p>\n

11 – Adhere all together with E-Z Dots\u00ae Permanent – Refillable<\/a>.<\/p>\n

12 – Punch holes through the chipboards and use a ribbon to close the card. Distress the edges with blue color.<\/p>\n
