Hide-Out!

I've used another new stamp on today's card...it's called 'Hide-out!'...of course by Penny Black. I coloured it using watercolour pencils, to match the 'Vintage Charm' papers by My Mind's Eye...then inked around the edges of everything using 'Old Paper' Distress Ink. I distressed the edges a little, then used my CutterBee Bug and a black gel pen to add some faux stitching. The sentiment stamp is from the 'Big Messages' set by Paula Pascual, the twine is from The Ribbon Girls, and the pearls are from Hobbycraft.
