Welcome to another new post, it's not always easy, and creating definitely is so hard sometimes when I'm on a downer, but I just keep trying, even if 3 out of 4 end up in the bin.
It's a new month for Stamping Sensations and Penny black & More @ Allsorts challenges, if you didn't get the chance to join in last month's challenges these could be the ones for you.
At Stamping Sensations this month the theme is 'Show Your True Colours' , so use your favourite colours and at the moment I am loving the colour combination of Distress Inks - Bundled Sage and Victorian Velvet and went vintage with this card. All the stamps including the small ones used to make my backgrounds are from Crafty Individuals and are from sets from a magazine as a Freebie.
We have sponsorship this Month from
And of course, the Design Team have created some stunners to inspire you. Please do pay them a visit to their individual blogs - it means a lot to know you appreciate their efforts.
And now onto my second challenge creation for Penny black & More @ Allsorts, where the theme is 'Blooms, Butterflies And Bugs' , I have all three on my card. I love the layout I have done on this card and will definitely be using it again, it's just so pretty.
We have prizes from Penny Black, Swedish House Crafts and Stix2 Now isn't that a lot of prizes, definitely worth getting your Penny Black stamps out isn't it!!!!!!
