Coffee Loving Papercrafters

Kimberly here, hoping you are well and looking for inspiration. I love looking at all of the Penny Black stamps in stores and selecting a few faves to create with.

Today I am sharing some soft, muted, and somber colors. A cool dreamy background blended with distress oxide inks. Lately when I am not really very inspired I will pull out my inks and blend some background panels to use later.

Love the Penny Black series of stamps that all work together. The Blooms and overflowing Blooms are lovely with the Brew-Tea-Ful cups.

Most samples of the Penny Black cards have a water color look. I have used Copic markers and used them in rounded swipes to simulate the look of a watery blended look.

It snowed here over the weekend. Later Sunday evening it was just a dusting. Very late in the winter for our area. Typically in my area of Washington State it snows mildly staying around just under a week and is gone, or we have a crazy ice storm that leaves us powerless for awhile.

Thanks for coming by!
