Penny Black Saturday #135 - January Sales....


My card for this week's challenge from Penny Black Saturday :)
'January Sales'....use your bargains on your cards!
I have used a sweet PB teddy image for my card and my bargains are the embossing folders I have used....I love embossing folders and I bought 5 new sets in the mega Sizzix sale over the New Year, they were reduced so much I just could'nt resist!!!
I have coloured the adorable bear with promarkers and I used no dp's as I wanted to show the embossing clearly.....finished with some cute polka flowers and gems and a craftworks sentiment.
We are sponsored this week by 'Fantastic Ribbons'...
and the lucky winner will win 4 rolls of ribbon :)

I would like to enter my card in the following challenges -
Truly Scrumptious #49 - Colour Challenge...Brown, Pink & Green
Fab n Funky Challenge #56 - Animal Magic
&
Teddy Stampers #28  - Anything Goes...

I am going on a little jaunt today to one of my local fabulous craft shops, Simply Create in Alford who are officially opening today in a new location and the wonderful Kath ~ whom I'm sure you all know well :) is demoing with Hero Arts. It will be great to meet up IRL with Kath and hopefully some other crafty blog friends...if we are all there at the same time!!

Thanks for looking xx

Hi Jenny it was lovely to meet you at Alford today. Kath's cards were stunning weren't they and she is such a natural at demoing. We had great fun. Earlier on I got handed a pair of scissors to cut out a butterfly!

Love your PB card. The image is lovely and so is the colour combo. The embossing is lovely, really effective. I must try to use more of my folders, I'm bad for using the same ones and neglecting the others.

Hiya,

The embossing is brilliant, really effective. From previous comments it sounds like you had a fab day.

I had to cancel my visit cos of the snow, but will get there one day.
