PENNY BLACK SATURDAY CHALLENGE

Hi Everyone

A nice bright and early start for me today.

I have a day of wedding work ahead of me .. .. woo hoo!! .. .. so thought I would get my crafty make in nice and early before I get "into the lovely dovey zone".

There was a lovely sketch over at Penny Black Saturday .. .. and what better way to make something than with a sketch to take away half of the thinking away LOL!!!!

Plus .. .. my Guest Designer spot starts with these lovely ladies next week so I thought I would get a bit of practice in ready!!

Here is my creation:




This used:

Image:  Penny Black "4092K" A Thorny Affair
Sentiment:  Penny Black "2764F"  A Merry Xmas
Backing Papers:  Papermania "A Silent Night"
Hobbycraft Punch:  For the larger snowflake (not sure who makes the punch for the little one)
Woodware Punch:  Corner Rounder
Nestabilities:  Classic Circle Large and Scalloped Circle Large
My Trusty Sewing Machine
Shrink Plastic
Distress Ink:  Old Paper
Glossy Accents
Sticky back pearls from the stash box

Gosh what a big list!!!

Here is the sketch if you fancy joining in!


So that is me for today ... ... off now to get stuck into that wedding work!!

Oh and whilst I am here ..Anice has a fabby Bank Holiday sale on over at Funky Hand. 


So a great change to go and bag yourself a bargain as that includes the CD's, Our Betty stamps and the paper packs.


Have a wonderful day everyone and I will catch you tomorrow with my snippet makes and the register of all my lovely playmates.

Love
