penny black week 45 a sketch

last one from me tonight i am going to bed (early for me!!!). this weeks penny black challenge is a sketch from nat. the hedgie stamp is a real sweetie and as you all know he is one of my faves, this one is called bug post and i bought him at ally pally. the papers are from my stash of goodies, the happy birthday sentiment has been stamped inside the postage stamp from stamp addicts onto shrink plastic and then heated til it has SHRUNK. this amazes me everytime. thanks for dropping in see you tomorrow xx

colour create week 12 (black, white and pink)

another day at the mad house over!!!!! i found out today we have next friday off as well as bank holiday monday so i am sooooooo looking forward to that, all in all it has turned out to be a very good day,(manchester united won and we are back at the top of the league) happy days.

my first card tonight is for the colour create challenge which this week's colours are black, white and pink. i made a card similar to this for my sister in law's birthday last year and i think this stamp looks great stamped and embossed in black with only the flesh coloured in. the stamp is from dimension fourth, the paper and ribbon are from my stash. the hat pin i bought from sugar and spice and i added the beads. i hope the pink shows up ok on the picture.
