PENNY BLACK CHALLENGE - WEEK 60

Hi Everyone

The theme over at Penny Black this week is "SUMMER".

Not much inspiration from this card could be found looking out of my window .. .. .. .. just rain, rain and more rain!!! What a good job I have a very vivid imagination. LOL!!!

Here is my card

This used:

Image: Penny Black 3782J "lazy days" and butterflies from the "Critter Party" set
Backing Paper: Sorry not sure - it is ages old and from the days when it didn't matter what paper I used.
Punches: Fiskars "Threading Water",
X Cut "Medium and Small Flower",
Martha Stewart "Frond"
Diamond Stickles
ProMarkers
Ribbon and sticky gems from the stash box

So there we have it .. .. .. .. my summer card for Penny Black.

Thank you for calling by to look.

Enjoy the rest of your weekend.

Love Jules xx

    Oh so cute, this card really does make me think of summer (whatever that is!). This image is an all time favourite and you have coloured it beautifully. I love the flowers with the coloured petals.
    The sun was shining and even looked like it was going to stay but now it's gone again :(

    I love these little Hedgehogs ! Don't they make you just smile! Very cute card Jules! The weather "across the pond" in my neck of the woods has not been ideal either this summer. It is however perfect for crafting! Take Care! - Tracy -
