PENNY BLACK AT ALLSORTS - APRIL

Good morning everyone

Well here I am as promised .. .. bright and early with my DT card for the Penny Black at Allsorts Challenge for April.

Were you one of the winners from last month? 

If so, congratulations!! ..    if not then I am sorry :-(    ... ... perhaps you might win this month.

The theme for April is "Black and White and One Other Colour"  .. .. .. but you are allowed to use additional colours for skin tones or hedgehog prickles etc

But no hedgehog prickles for me this time .. .. here is my creation





This used:

Image:  Penny Black "3636K" Flying Stars
Backing Papers:  Pink Petticoat
Leone Em Pty Punch: Ash Branch
Martha Stewart Punch:  Valentine Lace
ProMarkers and Aqua Markers
Glossy Accents
Flowers, brads, feathers, button, ribbon and lots of teeny tiny beads from the Stash Box

So for me it was black, white and green .. .. .. I hope you get chance to pop over and see what all my DT buddies created.  There are some awesome creations.

All the rules and regulations are on the Challenge Blog here.  I hope you get chance to play along with us.

In the meantime that is me for now. 

Have a lovely Friday!!!!

Love
