Hello Friends, I hope you all had a nice weekend and my American friends I hope you had a bang of a 4th of July. Today I am so excited to show you this transparent set from Penny Black. If you were a “Penny Black Club Member” you have already seen this stamp set. If you don’t want to miss our NEXT exclusive sneak peek you can sign up here and you won’t miss a thing.
This Penny Black NEW transparent set is called “Fun in the Sun” and I think it’s soooo adorable.
The list to add your name to win this set is further down the post…after my card details .
Sorry to throw you a link and most of you already have seen how I create these backgrounds but, if you haven’t go here for a look. These waves were really easy. Just cut a wavy piece of paper and distress away.
I used Tumbled Glass, Broken China, Faded Jeans and Chipped Sapphire. After your first layer flip the paper over for the second color and repeat. Make sense???
When dry cut some of the layers apart so you can stagger them like this. 
For the last layer I added a double layer of dimensional foam.
This is how they look when you cut them apart. Distress your edges to finish them edge off nicely.
Stamp, color and cut your image. I used Glossy Accents on all of the beach accessories. This how I figure what layout will work for me. š
YOU MUST PUT YOUR NAME ON THE INLINKZ LIST TO WIN THIS TRANSPARENT SET. WINNER WILL BE NOTIFIED AND SELECTED RANDOMLY FROM INLINKZ NEXT WEEK .
I can’t wait for you to see the new PB Christmas stamps…oh my they are amazing. Thanks for stopping. Hugs, Kathy
P.S. I have photos of Copic storage but, posting will have to wait..so sorry but, I have so many deadlines now š Thanks for your patience.
SUPPLIES: The new summer stamps are just hitting the stores any day.

Fantastic instructions & dimension on this, that edging is incredible & the attention to detail second to none. Take care of yourself with all the deadlines – you give so much & I have huge encouragement from your work.
The variety amongst Penny Black images is so versatile it is difficult to choose from amongst them – each is a favourite in turn & I have phases of working with different images. Thanks for an opportunity of working with this set.
