PENNY BLACK SATURDAY CHALLENGE

Hi Everyone

I hope everyone has seen the sunshine today.  It isn't mega warm sunshine here but it is lovely to see.

I think we are nearly in the realms of needing to hope for rain during the night and sunshine in the day as our local radio is already talking of water shortages!!!  Aparently it needs to rain solid for two months if the water stocks are going to reach the necessary levels.  Eeekkk!!!  That is an awful lot of rain!!

Anyway, enough of the nasty talk and round to my card. 

Today's share is for the Penny Black Saturday Challenge where the theme this week is "Clean and Simple".






This used:

Image:  Penny Black "3295K" Rose Heart
Cuttlebug Embossing Folder:  Swiss Dots
Koh-I-Noor Pencils blended with Sansodor Oil
Ribbon and pearls from the stash box

Mmmm... a clean and simple card and a quick one to post about too.  Can't be bad!! 

Hope you all have a great evening.  I am in the midst of Father's Day cards so am off back into male card mode now after sneaking in this pretty one!!

Thank you for calling by and for all your lovely comments.  I do appreciate them.

Love

    No problem finding the heart today Jules! Beautiful CAS card.
    I need to give the garden a good soak today. I quite enjoy trudging back and forth with my watering can, I find it very relaxing!

    We've had lovely sunshine today too, Jules, although like you say it's still a tad chilly. I think we've been spoilt don't you.
    Your card is gorgeous, love the heart stamp and the way you've used the double ribbon. It's really classy.
