Penny Black and Colour Create Challenges

I made this card following the fabulous sketch by Nat on the Penny Black Saturday Challenge
I also used the lovely colour scheme on the Colour Create Challenge
Grassy green,apple green, sunflower yellow, lemon and white, the optional extra was to decorate the inside of the card and the envelope too :-)







The grassy looking paper is a download from Summertime Designs and the yellow spotty paper is from a Bearly Mine CD. I love using downloads especially as I have just bought a fabby new HP CISS system printer ! Brilliant !! :-)

The sentiment is from Simon Says Clear Stamps SIMPLY THE BEST SENTIMENTS Exclusive Set


Thanks for looking, I appreciate your comments so please leave me one :-)

Saturday Sketch meets House Mouse Monday :-)

I made this card following the fabulous sketch on the Sketch Saturday Challenge

I also used a stamp that I bought from Jay Jay, it arrived yesterday and had to use it :-) Cute eh ! I don't know how she could bear to part with this one !!



The theme on the House Mouse Monday Challenge is Paper Tole, I use this technique all the time I just didn't know it had a name :-) It does make the 3D effect much nicer as the card is rounded, makes the mice look plump :-)





I am also entering this card in the C R A F T Challenge
their theme is 'Decoupage'

I used download papers from Summertime Designs Beautiful papers !!
