Hi Everyone

Lighter mornings are coming!! Yay!!!

So here is the very quick card I made this morning - using "one" of my favourite Penny Black stamps.

This used:

Image: Penny Black 3377K "Whispers"
Background Paper: Pink Petticoat "Big Fella"
Nail heads: Josy Rose
Diamond Stickles
Promarkers
Ribbon from the stash box

Well off to work for me now!!

Catch you again soon folks .. .. .. have a good day!!

Love Jules xx

    Oh, I really love this Jules. I've taken a real shine to anything stamped onto script of anykind. I can see why the image is a favourite too. Another one I 'need' methinks!

    Now don't go getting envious of my luch hour Jules, you made a start at the crack of dawn when I was doing tedious office duties.

    You know how much I like black and white and this is one stunnig card. What I want to know is how come I don't have that stamp ? Well don't think I do anyhow, need to go check - could that mean I have too many I wonder ?

    Oh, I love this, Jules!! It's so unusual with that paper but it looks amazing!!! Thanks for your comments about me starting work. Trouble is my job is supply work so I go in for a day but then might not go in for another week or two so I've got no chance of remembering what I'm supposed to be doing!!!!! x

    It's lovely now the days are lengthening isn't it Jules. We could just do with some warmer weather.
    I love your card. The print flowers look wonderful.
    Hope your day has gone ok.

    Hi Jules,

    I LOVE your blog! This card is beautiful. I think black gives such a dramatic impact on the simplest of cards. Yours, my friend, is not simple at all! I thought that the text was part of the stamp, until I read a couple of the other comments. (Everyone stop laughing! Oh, Go on and laugh!)

    What an incredible idea. I have never seen this done, and the text looks so very crisp.

    Beautiful! Love the bow, too!

    Thanks for letting me/us have a look!

    He IS Able,
    Traci S.
