Happy Wednesday everyone!

Penny Black has a fabulous new release called Hello Sunshine which has something for everyone – flowers, scenes, cute critters and sentiments – I was particularly pleased to see a few strip sentiments sets!

Today I’m using some of the products from this release that Penny Black kindly sent me and I chose to begin with the beautiful Treasured stamp (40-893). It’s a brushstroke stamp which I rarely use, but I don’t know why as they are so easy to use with the Misti! I used Milled Lavender and Peeled Paint distress oxide inks here – I lightly misted the stamp with water and I love how the colours changed with oxidisation. It looks like I used a bit of Antique Linen too doesn’t it…. but I didn’t!!!

Anyway, I used one of the sentiment dies from the release – Hello Edger (51-772). I coloured the word with Milled Lavender and actually included a smidge of Antique Linen because I wasn’t sure that the oxidisation would have the same effect again. I added a few butterflies to complete my card – they are from the Flourish and Butterflies die set (51-198) and I also cut one from the Butterfly Heart Pop Out die (51-291) .

Thanks for stopping by!
