I have a fun card to share today using my new Penny Black "It's Your Day" set from Paper Garden Projects. I followed the Taylored Expressions sketch, because it worked perfectly with the three little party goers on the bottom of the card. I colored all of my critters with copics and used some Kaisercraft paper, stitching, dew drops and ribbon. What fun! You'll see me work more with this set as the month goes on. No Fooling! :-)
I don't know what it is about these little Penny Black mice, but I just *adore* them! This little birthday celebration is from the Critter Party set. I colored it with copics and added a little bit of Stickles for sparkle. The flower is punched with the Boho Blossoms SU punch and the little frond punch is by Martha Stewart. I started out following the Sketch Saturday sketch and using the Penny Black Saturday challenge colors of green, yellow and pink. Well, I got the colors ok... but the sketch took on a life of its own! :-) Here's the finished project...
I have a full week of blogging planned if all goes well... a digi card tomorrow, one of my sweet Magnolias on Wednesday, the PaperTrey blog hop on Thursday, Friday is the Paper Garden Fourth Friday Challenge, and Saturday I'll post my Clearly Inspired Challenge card... although you can start on that challenge on Friday as well! Hope you'll be able to drop by!
...with Penny Black Mousies!!! This little critter is from the Penny Black Transparent set called Every Which Way, and I just adore him! (or perhaps her, since she's mounted on a pink card???) I used some cardstock, dp and ribbon from the new Valentine Paper Kit from Paper Garden Projects and made sure there was stitching and some pearls so I could enter it in Joanne's challenge. ☺ My mousie is colored with copics, and the stitching on the side of the main panel... well, it's there because my image moved in the nestibilities die when I cut it and I needed to fill in space. ROFL!! I like the look, though!! Don't you just love mistakes?? They expand your creative horizon!!
