PENNY BLACK SATURDAY CHALLENGE Recipe 3,2,1...

Posting my card for the current challenge at PBSC just a little bit earlier this week! I chase my tail all week and usually end up showing it on a Friday..............however, the challenge this week is a recipe....
3 Brads, 2 Ribbons and 1 Flower

Now, at first glance you may think i've boobed and used three flowers!....... but this is one large paper bloom cut into 3 pieces. The papers are from a Christmas download at Funky Hand, called Funky Little Christmas..................i know, i know i've mentioned the 'C' word in March............how bad am I? :)
The brads are Bo Bunny and the sentiment is computer generated using Lucida Handwriting font. The ribbons are from stash, but the spotty one is Bobbin at £1 per reel. I added some doodle dots with my Inkssentials pen and a Zig marker. The gorgeous little lady is of course a Penny Black stamp called 'Evening Glow'.................................oh to have a figure like that!!!!
...................coloured in my usual fashion with Distress inks.

Thanks for your visit today, have a great Wednesday and i'll see you tomorrow! ;-D

    Fab card Carol! Love the idea to use pieces of the flower not as an front-embellishment, but as a background decoration.. this is really fun :-)
