Penny Black Challenge

My card today is for the current challenge over at PBSC, a colour theme of.....................

BLUE,TAN & CREAM

Tip of the day..........................crystals will not go through the Cuttlebug!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!


It was only after i had stuck the crystals to the image that i decided to cut out the image with the nesties...............bad news!! ............ the Cuttlebug absolutely crushed them to a powder almost, so i had to prise off what was left of them and stick on some new ones!!! Luckily it didn't mess up the rest of the image and i was able to complete my card without any more hassles :)

Image.... Brush Ornament Penny Black 2801k
Hero Arts.... Scribble Background
Sentiment.... HOTP
Ink.... Archival Sepia
Stickles.... Platinum
Swarorovski crystals
Nestabilities & Cuttlebug
Blue paper.... Basic Grey Lime Rickey
organza dotty ribbon from stash

Short staffed in the office today and tomorrow, so i may not see you for a day or two.......i'll be too cream crackered! ...........enjoy your day ;-D

  7. They don't go through the Wizard either Carol I have a star shaped dent in my Wizard plate because a star shaped gem sneaked in somehow. (not due to being an untidy crafter you understand - lol).

    Great card you've made anyway.
