Hi bloggers! Yes another Penelope card! I started with the
Brambled Rose embossing folder to add some texture to the coconut white background. I used the
Zigzag borders to cut two white strips and one Iris card strip. I glued them on to a piece of black card, then used the
zigzag borders on either side to cut them out leaving a thin black border around them. I added them across the bottom of the card. I used the
Happy Birthday sentiment cut in Iris card and added to a white shadow backing. I glued it onto the zigzag borders on the right side. For the focal element on the top of the card, I cut the
Penelope die top layer out of white, the middle out of Iris card and backed it with a black backing. I added it onto the larger backing which I cut in white. I cut the
Betsy die in white and layered it on top of the
Penelope die with the centre stamped with my sentiment in black. The card was completed with white, black and Iris card mats and layers. The finished dimensions are 7 1/2" x 8 1/2" in size. All for now,

Morning Sue.
Thank you another very pretty card.
Thank you it was a great show yesterday.
The tv is all set for today.
Take care and have fun Kitty.
Morning Sue. I do love the depth of the embossing the Rambling Rose gives, so tactile and perfect for someone with compromised sight. The whole design looks fresh and clean. Looking forward to my SW fix today the perfect excuse or reason to stop for a coffee break lol.
Have a fun day Sue xxx

Hello Sue
I don't have the zig zag die yet but it is high on my list of must haves. This is a lovely card.

Hi Sue
Another Penelope card you say - seeing as she is so lovely it’s allowed!
The iris colour looks especially stunning with that pop of black setting it off. The zig zag border is such a versatile die for so many cards. It compliments any of your other dies and is equally fabulous used as a feature on its own.
I watched the whole of your show yesterday, uninterrupted and it was so good to see you back. As always you were brilliant. 2pm today has been set aside for another hour of pleasure and I can’t wait x
Happy Thursday everyone

Good Morning Sue and all
Stunning card this morning and love the choice of colours, adding the hint of black really brings the design together. The depth in the detail of the rambling rose embossing folder works beautifully with the zig zag die.
Crafty hugs to all , Wendy
Good morning Sue and all Wilsonettes.
Beautiful card and colour combinations and you were right Steph about the texture of the background . The whole card comes together beautifully.
Have fun.

Good morning Sue,
A beautiful card that looks very different from yesterday's despite both featuring Penelope. The addition of Betsy disguises Penelope very cleverly!x

Hi Sue. Well what can I say, another BEAUTIFUL card today !!! You have used the GORGEOUS Penelope die again which I love. I do like the background embossing folder you have used to. Really pretty. I am loving those Zig Zag dies and they have been on my wish list for ages. The trouble is I now have your brand new die release to choose from to. Too many choices !!! How I wish I could win the Lottery or something !!! I love the colours you have used on your card to. Thank you Sue. Lots of love from Tres x x x
This is a very eye catching card Sue. Love the Zigzag border die is amazing!! The more I see it the more I WANT it.

Hi Sue, love the colours and the rambling rose EF is my most favourite and most used, it goes with almost everything.

Hi Sue. Don't Penelope and Betsy work so nicely together. Not sure if I would use the zigzag border with that focal element as for me it is too heavy against the other delicate dies - sorry.
Lisbeth
Lovely card Sue,love the iris colour,
