PENNY BLACK SATURDAY

Hi Everyone

Well .. .. what makes you think the House of Hearts Craft Pod was opened up bright and early today?

As normal my Saturday started with a check on the Penny Black Saturday challenge for the week.

Sadly I haven't taken part for a few weeks (sorry ladies) .. .. but today I have made amends.

The challenge this week is to use "No Patterned Papers".  Well that speeded things up a bit and took some of the decisions away didn't it!!

Here is my creation




This used:

Image:  Penny Black "1644L" Say Cheesecake
Sentiment:  Computer Generated using Font "Marcello Handwriting"
Cuttlebug Embossing Folder:  "Numbers"
Martha Stewart Punch:  Embossed Zig Zag
Josy Rose:  Nail Heads
ProMarkers
Ribbon from the Stash Box

Busy day here today so I will love you and leave you, and catch you again tomorrow.

Love

    Hello Jules,

    The embossing folder makes a perfect backdrop for your sweet PB mice and blue and brown is a colour combo I always think works so well.

    Have a good weekend.

    Smashing - love the embossed panel, the cute image and the lovely subtle colours. Clearly you don't need it to make a lovely card but I love it so much I would miss patterned paper if I couldn't have again ever. Hope you are enjoying the weekend. Elizabeth x
