Happy Birthday

Hello, Hope your day is off to a good start.  It’s time again for our Anything Goes over at Seize the Birthday.  I would love for you to join us, but please remember to make it a Birthday theme.

Here are a few card details:  I got this wooden stamp recently and couldn’t wait to ink it up!  First, I inked it up with very light grey ink and then colored it in with Prisma Colored Pencils. I believe it’s only the second or third time that I have colored on black cardstock. I love the look of it, and not sure why I don’t do it more. The banner die is from MFT and the sentiment is from Verve. In hindsight, I wish I hadn’t added the various (MFT) leaves in the open spaces…but what you gonna’ do. What’s done is done.

I would love to also link this card up over at The Flower Challenge where they want us to use one of our latest stamps.

The DT and our Surprise Party Guest Julie have really got some great cards over on the blog, come on over and check them out.

Take care, Nanc’

  1. Beautiful birthday card and gorgeous floral design. I love the colored pencil look on the black as well.

  2. This is so pretty! You rocked it! I’ve never coloured on black paper – do you need Prisma pencils? If so, I will need to get some – it looks fantastic.

  3. Beautiful card, Nancy! I’ve tried this once and loved it. Thanks for the inspiration….I’ll have to try it again.

  4. Very pretty. Love the coloring on black cardstock. I have only done it once or twice myself. You did a great job with it. Have a wonderful weekend.

  5. This is just beautiful Nancy!! so elegant!!

  6. This is beautiful! I have yet to try to color on black cardstock, though I just may need to now. 😉

  7. WOW! So Pretty! LOVE the coloring on the black cardstock… so COOL!

  9. The pencil coloring just glows off that black, Nancy. This is gorgeous. Thanks for sharing it with us at The Flower Challenge.

  10. Pretty! Love the colouring on black. I do like my MISTI, but sometimes there’s an old-fashioned rubber-on-wood ya just gotta have – good choice on this one!

  11. I think that coloring on black is so stunning. This is exceptional and I am jealous of your talent.

  12. This is gorgeous Nancy, the pencil on black looks amazing, Cathy x

  13. Totally agree- the coloring on black is looking totally awesome! As soon as I stopped here, I wanted to know what the coloring medium was – you’ve made a spectacular job of it! I think the extra leaves are looking good, though.. And that it is a wonderful card!

  14. What a gorgeous card, love that stamp and your colouring on the black card stock is beautiful. Thanks so much for sharing with us at The Flower Challenge.

  15. So rich looking on the black.

  16. Pencil coloring on black always looks classy and elegant! Love it! I think without the extra leaves it would have looked a little bit empty. It was a great touch, Nancy!
