PENNY BLACK SATURDAY CHALLENGE

Phew!!!! i made it! but only just in time this week :) There is a fab Sketch by Nat over at PBSC, so being the sketch freak that i am, i just had to have a go! As usual time seems to fly by when i'm crafting...........so sneaking in at the last minute here :)

As mentioned in yesterday's post, i have just received these gorgeous 'Porcelain' papers from Basic Grey and i will be using them a lot for my designs over the coming days........i do hope you won't get tired of them..................i certainly won't tire of using them ;-D
The image is one i was lucky enough to find in the bargain box at Stamperama the other week and is called 'Lofty'. I have used Adirondack inks to colour my image and spritzed with a mist of water before placing down onto the BG paper. The fancy border strip is from the element sheet in the collection and the glazed brads are also 'Porcelain' All plain cardstock used here is Bazzill, from a pack to match the papers.

I love these Brush Stroke Flowers from Penny Black, they have such a realistic look to them :)
Thanks for popping in to see me today.................see you again soon ;-D

Hugs
