It's time for another Penny Black Saturday Challenge! Yey! This week, especially for our American friends this weekend, is Red, White and Blue! And funnily enough, nearly all of us have gone for stars and stripes too! They just go together I guess! And to celebrate our new sponsors Penny Black Inc, we have 3 of the gorgeous new Mimi and Bluebell stamps - cute, as a prize! We also have a 4th prize for you, a stamp of your choice from Stampers Supermarket - more than enough reasons to enter!
Here's my card which also uses this weeks Cupcake Craft sketch, it's a great one! I am actually really pleased with this card! It just all seemed to go together easily! The gem swirl I made using a Bazill template - such a good invention! And the stripey paper was made by using 2 different size Pink Petticoat stripe papers and layering them over each other in my graphics program. I hope you like it!
Supplies-
Stamp - 'Cinnamon' by Penny Black
Colouring - Copics
Papers - Pink Petticoat & Core'dinations
Stars - Dovecraft & Woodware punches & the large one is a Fiskars template
Sentiment - Personal Impressions
Gem swirl - Anita's gem wheel & Bazill template

Beautiful card and coloring, but what really made me laugh was the cat in the toilet. I thought that I was in my own bathroom for a second! What is it with cats and toilets? Mine also has a box fetish. It's great to be a Sugar Baby with you!
