Penny Black week 57

The challenge this week over at Penny Black Saturday is 'Swirls' As usual i've left it to the last minute, so it had to be quick card today!!

The image is of course the fabulous 'Brush Ornament' from Penny Black. I've used this so many times over the last two or three years, i don't think i will ever tire of it :)
The gorgeous swirly paper is from the latest Funky Hand download called 'I Do', the blue cardstock is K&Co re-make.
I've inked the image with a ColorBox cats eye in 'Blue Iris' and added some stickles and Kanban grey flat back pearls. I used an Ornare template to prick the swirl in the corner and under the sentiment(HOTP) and the lush grey ribbon is from a local garden centre gift department.

I've really cheated with this one, so i hope it's still acceptable! Thanks for popping in today, see you soon :-D
