These were among my favorite cards that I created for Penny Black's marketing department.

| #40-490 Pine Burst |
I promised to share a couple of tips with you today so here is the first one : ) I wanted to show how elegant this wreath is so I heat embossed it using a beautiful Copper embossing powder. Next I applied Versamark ink directly on to my card base - just on the sides and then using the same Copper embossing powder I heat set it! This technique is so elegant and insures you match your main image perfectly! Last I added some clear rhinestones here and there : )

| #40-494 Scarlet Majesty and #51-251 Rejoice |
This is one of my favorite images from this release. Doesn't this Poinsettia have incredible detail! Can you guess what my tip #2 is going to be - to add some shimmer and shine? I placed my card base in my Misti and stamped the flower. I cleaned off the stamp and, using Versamark ink, I applied ink just to the tips of the flowers. Naturally it lined up perfectly thanks to the Misti. As you can see I heat embossed the tips only using silver Embossing Powder : ) SO easy and such a beautiful result. Next I cut my die and painted it with Silver Liquid Leaf paint.

| #51-265 Woodland Scene and #51-251 Rejoice |
This is another super quick card made easy with Penny Black's layered dies. After cutting my two layers I applied just a hint of blue ink to the back layer of the scene. Next I inked Versamark over the entire layer and embossed it with a pearly embossing powder. For the top layer of the die I left it completely uncolored. I painted on a little bit of glitter for some bling baby! I used the same "Rejoice" die and left it white as well for a super easy and sort of snowy looking results! : )
Penny Black dies are the best! they always cut out like butter no matter how delicate the detail is.
OK! now let's talk about candy!!

Beautiful, beautiful cards Patti!! Your copper wreath is just stunning (and I have that stamp...yeah!!) and I love the tip about embossing the sides of the card base to match! Your Poinsettia card is GORGEOUS and why oh why didn't I order that stamp when I placed my other 2 orders?!! Guess I have to order again!! And your white die cut card is fabulous...CAS perfection! I think PB needs to hire you full time!! Happy Friday my friend!! :0)
These are all incredibly beautiful, Patti! I love the idea of using the same embossing powder down the side of your card. It gives the card a seamless look and so elegant. That poinsettia card is gorgeous and I love the tips embossed in silver. Stunning!! They're all stunning! Great job, my friend!!
Stunning cards, Patti! Oh my gosh, thank you for the eye candy and the great tips you've shared! I don't heat emboss nearly enough. And I think I need to stock up on some really gorgeous embossing powder. Wow! Thanks so much for sharing on this very happy Friday! Thanks, too, for stopping by my blog and leaving such encouraging comments. :) Big hugs!!
Oh man! I just love what you do with paper and ink. All of these ideas are amazing, I have to say that I have seen then done before, but never as elegant as what you do. Absolutely gorgeous. I have an idea for my Christmas cards now. Oh, and thanks for a chance to win.
Oh Patti, you always do such an amazing job with these products! There is something that I love about each one of these as they all have a different unique character about each one! :) I love the rich embossing and beautiful classy ribbon on top. The second one is so elegant and gorgeous with the silver tipped petals and delicate sentiment die! Lastly the white on white is an excellent choice for the card design on the bottom. Beautifully put together so that the delicate die is front and center and showed off nicely! Thanks for sharing your wonderful postings my friend! Enjoy your weekend! HUGS
You've done it again, Patti! You've come up with three more AMAZING cards! I am seeing some Penny Black products I've not noticed before - my wish list is growing very quickly! Loving the shimmer and sparkle here, Patti! I left you some love over at PB - they are so lucky to have you!
Just amazing. Adore the copper embossed wreath, and the white on white, perfect in my eyes x
Elegance and sophistication, this trio of dazzling, shimmery delights! I love that the copper wreath, the GORGEOUS, silver-tipped embossed poinsettia and the peaceful winter scene are the stars of the stage, as well they should be! You have showcased these with finesse, my friend! Awe-inspiring!
Hugs~c

Patti, more inspiration from you and PB...you already enabled me to purchase some stamps!! I love the embossed edges of your poinsettia...stunning look and yes great detail in the petals!! You are doing PB proud!!
I love your poinsettia, Patti. It's amazing what a little embossing will do. Same is true for the wreath too.
I am so glad you were chosen to feature PB Stamps! Your Christmas ones are gorgeous! The tips are fun and I would have never thought of just embossing the tips of flowers- thanks for the inspiration!
I am so enjoying seeing what you are doing with the Penny Black line. These cards are all so wonderfully done too. You are a great inspiration to me. Thanks so very much.
Oh, these are gorgeous, Patti!
All of these are so elegant and seem easy to make Patti, that Poinsettia is hauntingly Beautiful..I MUST try that trick out sometime!
These are all so inspiring and stunning. PB is so lucky to have you on their team.
Beautiful cards, Patti!!! I love the way you embossed the poinsettia the most!!!
Beautiful cards! Love the 2nd one.
OOH and AAH! I love the copper wreath and copper sides! That card is amazing! The poinsettia card looks so vintage and the silver makes it so elegaant! I love your white card with the hint of blue. The shimmer is a beautiful touch!
Oooh these are all gorgeous Patti, but your Poinsettia one is a total STUNNER!!!
Cute cards as always Patti. You work well with heat embossing. I love that you always find a unique way to express a new challenge. I love your simple white cards. They all have a color of their own.
