I love this combination of black and white flowers from the Stampin’ Up! Penned & Painted stamp set. Black & white photographs with a single item colored within the photo were the inspiration. Mint Macaron was the contrast!
STAMPIN’ PRETTY TIPS:
- Using the Penned & Painted Photopolymer Stamp Set, create your own designer series paper and layer it on crisp Basic Black card stock to make it pop.

- The Mint Macaron 3/8″ Sheer Linen Ribbon was wrapped on the layer and tied effortlessly. A Mini Glue Dot holds it securely in place!
- The layer is propped up with Foam Adhesive Strips for a nice lift of my layer. LOVE!
- The inside of my card is just as pretty with the single stamp, Stylized Birthday in Mint Macaron ink.
- Here are additional card ideas from Stampin’ Up! using Penned & Painted stamp set!

What colours were used for the second card?

If you are talking about the Stampin’ Up! samples with “thanks” and “hello,” I believe it’s Pear Pizzazz and perhaps Pool Party.
