Penny Black "Caroling Trio" Christmas Card

There is something very nice about returning to an item you have had in your craft stash for years.   This wood mounted Penny Black stamp called "Caroling Trio" is one of those items.  It always stamps like a dream and I still love the image.


















I stamped the "Caroling Trio" image onto card using a Versafine ink pad.  I used my water colour pencils to colour, adding white dots of snow with my white Signo Pen and Stickles glue to add a little sparkle to the card.  Once dry, I die cut the image using a Memorybox "Stitched Rectangle" die. I punched some snowflakes and added some Stickles to the centre.  The "Seasons Greetings" sentiment is by Woodware.

Here's a close up image which hopefully captures some of the sparkle detail.

    1. Val, glad i'm not the only one. I think it's something to do with getting such a positive image from them x
