PBSC January - Anything Goes (Optional 'Something New')!

Happy New Year!

It's the first Saturday of the month, so that means it's time for a new Penny Black Saturday Challenge...where the theme is:

'Anything Goes'
or
'Something New

As usual, we are sponsored by the awesome 1-2-3 Stitch:
Prize - a $20 voucher!

I went with 'New Year' and I'm sharing the calendar that I made for my Mum for Christmas. I've been doing several of these for gifts each gifts for years...the calendar balnks are from Paper Mill Direct...currently in the sale if you fancy getting some for yourself.


I used all Penny Black images, and papers from a variety of brands...lots of snippets used up! I added some faux stitching to the edges, and that's about it...no embellishments, otherwise it becomes rather bulky (and heavy!).













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

    No embellishments are needed when you have these amusing PB critters to make your Mom (or any recipient) smile as they turn to each new month of the year! Great use of pp, too, Helen! Happy New Year Hugs, Darnell
