Penny Black Saturday Challenge - CASE IT (Debby)

As it's the first Penny Black Saturday Challenge of the month, we have another 'CASE IT' challenge for you...this time we want you to take inspiration from this fabulous card by Debby:


We have two wonderful sponsors for this challenge:

 


And from the Ribbon Girl


I took inspiration from Debby's kite-flying kitty...and used an image from the 'Hello Friend' set...which I coloured using watercolour pencils, then added Glossy Accents to the balloons. I used similar papers to the ones Debby used...from the '72 & Sunny' pad by We R Memory Keepers pad...adding faux stitching using a black gel pen. The sentiment is from the 'Sending Sunshine' set by Simon Says Stamp, the ribbon is from Hobbycraft, and the flower is from Wild Orchid Crafts.


I'm also entering this card into the following challenges:
For more inspiration from my lovely DT buddies, please visit the Penny Black Saturday Challenge.
