PENNY BLACK AT ALLSORTS CHALLENGE

Hi Everyone

Here today with my entry for the Penny Black at Allsorts Challenge.

This month they would like to see some Glitter and Glitz. Penny Black stamps along with a bit of glitter .. .. what could be better!!! LOL!!!

Here is my creation

along with the close up where you can see my glitter a bit better


This used:

Image: Penny Black "3687K" Light the Night
Backing Papers: Pink Petticoat "Vintage Rose"
Nestabilities: Classic Square Large
Martha Stewart Punch: Around the Page Loop
Leone Em Pty Punch: "CP30" Ash Branch"
Sizzix Die: "656640" Tattered Florals (Still not mine yet LOL!!)
Josy Rose: Flat Back Gems
ProMarkers
Adirondack Ink Pad "Pink Sherbet" for distressing the paper edge and the flower
Glamour Dust
Diamond Stickles
Sewing Machine
Brad from the stash box
I loved making this one. To start off with I tried to sew with a twinkly thread but it kept jamming up in my sewing machine needle .. .. shame :-(

The flower leaves have been punched from a bit of scrap card - I think that was from a DCWV stack originally.

I still don't own the Tattered Florals die from Sizzix - I am still using the lovely stack of petals I received from my blog buddy (thanks xx) but even if I could afford one at the moment I don't think they are available anywhere!! I'm not surprised .. .. they are really scrummy!!

So that is me for today.

I hope you all have a good day .. .. lots of creating needed from me today so I had better get cracking. Thankfully the sun isn't shining so I won't be tempted to wash more curtains LOL!!!

Take care.

Love Jules xx

    Hi Jules

    This is lovely, all very pink and girly and do I spy a new MS punch ?

    But despite blowing up the picture, I still can't see it - the heart that is, where is it ?

    Thank you for joining in at Penny Black at Allsorts this month.
