PBSC May - Anything Goes (Optional 'Pastel Colours')...More Inspiration!

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

'Pastel Colours'

As usual, we are sponsored by the awesome 1-2-3 Stitch:

Prize - a $20 voucher!

This time, I picked a fun chicken stamp called 'Chicky Nights', stamping it on to watercolour paper, and colouring it in pastel shades using watercolour pencils. For the background, I embossed a piece of watercolour effect paper (from the 'Watercolour Feelings' pad from The Works) using my CuttleBug 'Swiss Dots' embossing folder. I distressed all of the edges then added some faux stitching using my CutterBee Bug and a black gel pen. The sentiment stamp is from the 'Anytime Messages' set by Hero Arts.

I'm also entering this card into the following challenges:

• Crafty Calendar - Anything Goes
• Elliebelle's Crafty Wednesday - Anything Goes
• Penny's Paper Crafty - Anything Goes
• Stamping Sensations - Anything Goes
• The Sisterhood of Crafters - Ladies
