Penny Black Challenge


Made this card late last night after spending over 2 hours putting all my Magnolia Stamps into an album. This is for this weeks sketch at Penny Black. THE stamp is of course Penny Black and have coloured with Derwent Aqua Tones. The backing paper and wording are from the Basic Grey "Euphoria" set and have cut Happy Birthday with my Cricut. Used Micra Pearl paper down the side and empunched and added 3 flowers. Havent made anything else today, spent 5 hours gutting out sorting Zoes bedroom and another 2 redoing my wardrobe. Just hope Zoe keeps it tidy if only for a day! Will be crafting again this evening, thing I deserve a rest. Have a good weekend.
