Penny Black Guest Designer - Final Week

Hi folks,

Well it's my final week as Guest Designer for the Penny Black Challenge and I would just like to say a very big thank you to all of you who checked out my blog and left lovely comments.  It has been a pleasure designing for them and I considered myself very lucky as I had four great themes to work with.  Talking of themes, this week's is a recipe, three flowers, two buttons and a bow.  I did not want to over-embellish my card so I used a PB stamp with three flowers to get me started, hope you like the end result.

Have a great week and thanks for looking.

Penny Black Guest Designer - Week 3

Hi everyone,

The weeks are just flying by and I am now on my last but one challenge as Guest Designer for Penny Black.  The theme this week is Monochromatic Brown, which just happens to be one of my favourite colours to work with, so coupled with one of my favourite stamps and sentiment I give you my third entry.

Have a wonderful week and thanks for taking the time to look.

Thought I would show you a card that we made yesterday in my MS card class. Another oldish stamp just having it's first airing, not sure if this is Candyfloss or Marshmallow.

Thanks for looking and have a great day.

Easter Pansy


Thought I would share with you a quick card I recently made, another stamp that has never seen the light of day but I love it and think it will now get a little over-exposed for the foreseeable future.

Thanks for looking and have a great day.

Blowing in the wind


I am determined this year to use stamps that I have bought over the years and that have never seen the light of day. This is one in particular, I thought at the time that it would be good for backgrounds, not sure now, might be good for a beach scene. Anyway, it's by Great Impressions.

Thanks for looking.

New Home


I recently made a new home card using my cricut and thought I would show you what I made with the negative lettering. I was quite pleased with the result and I thought ideal for a young trendy couple moving of even a fella. I never throw anything away.

Have a great week and thanks for looking.
