Penny Black Saturday - June Challenge!

      Good Morning!

Today we have a new challenge over at PENNY BLACK SATURDAY CHALLENGE. 
This month's challenge is 'Anything Goes with the Option of  'Stitching'.
I've created a simple sentiment free card which is perfect for any last minute Thank You/Sympathy/Just a Note occasions, there's always a time when you need a card for one of those but don't have one to hand so I like to keep a few simple cards ready just incase.

INGREDIENTS -
Penny Black 'Bliss' Wooden Stamp
White & Green Pearls
Sap Green - Archival Ink Pad

HAPPY CRAFTING!

Lili of the Valley Design Team - Blooming Great Day!

Good Morning!
As you can imagine finding time to sit down and make card with a baby is slightly tricky however I did find time to make this C&S Father's Day using a LOTV Digi. I've made this card for my partner as our baby has a little teddy so I thought the bear in the image would work perfectly along with the fact we grow Sunflowers at our Allotment.
INGREDIENTS - 
'Blooming Great Day' LOTV Digi Stamp
LOTV Sentiment
Brown & Green Pearls

Penny Black Saturday - May Challenge

     Good Morning!

Today we have a new challenge over at PENNY BLACK SATURDAY CHALLENGE. 
This month's challenge is 'Anything Goes with the Option of  'Monochrome'.
To play along with this theme I decided to create a C&S thank you card using one of the smaller wooden PB stamps and kept it simple by only adding a sentiment and some clear dew drops. I rather like the simplicity of the card and will more than likely re-create it in different ink colours so that I've got a go to stash of these in my collection :)INGREDIENTS -

As you can imagine I haven't really had time to craft but I wanted to make sure I had something to share today so I managed to make this quickly whilst she was sleeping the other morning!
