One Color Card: Orange

003
I've decided to set myself a goal this summer. I'm going to make at least 7 cards in one color only (one for all the colors in the rainbow). I might do them all with Penny Black stamps, but I'm not sure yet.

This is the first One Color Card made using a sketch from Friday Sketchers challenge blog. I chose orange first because it's my favorite color.

Materials:
Penny Black "Garden Friends" clear set
Prima flowers
Quickutz die
Stampin' Up papers
colored pencils
Sakura pen

Cute Penny Black Age cards

Here are some super cute number cards for the challenge over at One Stop Craft challenge blog. I've got two nieces birthdays in July and I figure that by making them matching, but personalized I can't go wrong. If I were to do two completely different cards, I might make one better than the other; this way I know that they are equally cute.

If you'd like to find out which stamp comes from which clear Penny Black set, click on the photo, then hover over the image you like.

I used ALL 6 of my Penny Black clear sets to make these two cards.
Bubbly, Critter Party, Every Which Way, Hugs!, Garden Friends, and Salutations.

I used Quickutz alphabets Paige Mini (Natalie) and Merry (Chloe).
