Penny Black Challenge.....

Pretty in Pink is this weeks Penny Black challenge.  The stamp I've used for this weeks challenge is called 'Framed Flowers'.  Coloured with penicls and mounted onto SU Pretty in Pink card.
Backing paper is M.M.E 'quite contrary summer papers. Lacey Nesties circle used for the LOTV sentiment.  I've again used my favourite embossing folder which is S.U. Square lattice and used vintage seam binding instead of ribbon for the bow.  Punches used are Martha Stewart Butterly, EK Success Corner Adorner, M.S. Border punch.
Today started off really well but has quickly gone down hill as I've just broken a punch and also my printer has just decided to die......so off to search for another one of each!!

Less is More challenge....

There a new challenge that started this week called 'Less is more'  and the challenge was to make a card using the colours Pink, black and white.
I found it so difficult to do a simple card, but this is what I came up with. I used a Stampin Up stamp called  'Elegant thank you' and also made  a small frame also using Stampin Up Scallop Trim corner punch.
