Penny Black Saturday Challenge #186!

Morning! Here we are at Saturday again and there's a brand new Penny Black Saturday challenge again! This week, we're thinking slightly ahead to those lovely spring days, Floral Frenzy!

This week we are sponsored by our lovely regular sponsor, Fantastic Ribbon! If you win, you can choose any 4 rolls of ribbon from their website!


Here's my card! I absolutely love this stamp!! But this card has been a slow and steady process all week finishing up last night! I've not really had much chance to sit down and make a whole card so one night I chose which image & sketch, the next I chose the papers and coloured in and last night I put it all together - complete with actual machine stitching!! My machine and I don't get along when it's paper I'm sewing so it's a little wonky in places, all adds to the 'handmade' effect! I've used a bit of 'Artistic license' with the sunflower by making it pink but I thought it sort of looked like the flowers in the background paper! Oh and also this sentiment is an Elzybells one! Thanks for stopping in and have a great weekend!
