It's the third Saturday of the month, so that means it's time for some more inspiration for this month's Penny Black Saturday Challenge...where the theme is:
'Anything Goes'
or
or
'Something New'
As usual, we are sponsored by the awesome 1-2-3 Stitch:
Prize - a $20 voucher!
I made a 'New Baby' card using a cute hedgie stamp called 'Baby Hammock'. I stamped it on to watercolour paper, then coloured it using watercolour pencils, before cutting the circle shape using one of my Nesties. I paried it with papers from the 'Vintage Dreams' pad by Craft Sensations...using my 'Swiss Dots' folder to emboss the plain one. I distressed the edges a little, then added some faux stitching using my CutterBee Bug and a black gel pen. The sentiment stamp is from the 'Handwritten Borders' set by Simon Says Stamp.
