Penny Black Saturday #195 ~ Sing-a-Long.....

It's Penny Black Saturday!! and this week we want you to all......

'Sing-a-Long'....

We would love to see your cards and projects using music-themed images or choose one of your favourite songs to feature as the theme of your project :)

I went for one of my favourite 'music' images from Penny Black called 'Joyful Abandon'.......the puddy cats look like they are having so much fun!!!

I have coloured as always with promarkers and prismas and kept the colours and layout simple as I think this image is great for those difficult mens cards!!

I used my new paper piercing guide from SU to do the pierced edge design :) Finishing with some co-ordinating twine and a button for embellishment. 

We have something a little different for the prize this week too........one lucky winner will be invited to join us for the month of May as......

Guest Designer!!

To be announced next Saturday :)

I would like to enter my card into the following challenges -

Simon Says Stamps - 'Anything Goes'.....

MMCS #50 - Stamp It.....

CES Challenges #79 - No Girls Allowed....

Thanks for looking xx

Penny Black Saturday #194 ~ Easter EGGstravaganza!!

Morning!! I'm back........apologies for the long absence but I've been feeling under the weather the last couple of weeks and I have done NO crafting!! I must have been feeling ill!

I think the brighter, warmer weather has perked me up the last few days and I'm looking forward to a lovely, sunny weekend here in Scotland :)

Anyway I have made a card for today's fab Penny Black Saturday challenge......

'Easter EGGstravaganza'...

I love Easter cards, I dont make too many but I love the ones I do make :)

I have used a cute PB bunny stamp called 'Eggceedingly Happy' and coloured as always with my promarkers and prismas. I have used bright, colourful papers and the little Easter Bunny tag is from a We r Memory Keepers paper pad.

We have a wonderful new sponsor this week.......'Craftwork Cards',



 and the prize is FABulous!! Check out all the details over at the {BLOG}

Morning!! We have a fun challenge today for you over at Penny Black Saturday!

'The Young Ones'.......a card for a child :)

I have chosen a cute hedgie image......love these 2 on the seesaw!!

The image is coloured as always with promarkers and prismas and the bright papers and embellishments are from a We r Memory Keepers paper pad.

Love these colours and papers together and I think the 'fun' sentiment echoes the fun the hedgies are having!!

I have chalked in the sky background :)

Baby.....

I'm back to share a couple of the projects I made for the demo day @ Papercrafts in Elgin :)

I got to play with the ever so cute Forever Friends stamps called 'New Arrival'....a great set of clear stamps with 3 large bear stamps and loads of smaller accessory stamps and sentiments.

The altered canvas above I really enjoyed making, the papers are Forever Friends too.....the Springtime pack. I cut out the name/numbers with an old Sizzix alphabet and had fun adding all the girly touches :)

For this card below I have used the Forever Friends papers again and made a sweet little babygro card. The buttons I glittered using PVA glue and some dry glitter and the little cross-stitch stitching detail around the arms/legs is from the FF 'New Arrival' set.



I am entering the canvas into the following challenges ~

Joanna Sheen March Challenge - Spring/Easter.....

PaperTakeWeekly - Anything Goes...

I Love Promarkers #107 - Ribbons and Bows....

MMCS #47 - Spring Colours....

Penny Black Saturday #191 ~ CASE It....Domi

Morning!! It's 'CASE IT' time over at Penny Black Saturday today.......

We are casing Domi's pretty card below ~

I have cased Domi's layout adding a few details of my own and decided to go bright and bold with my colours!!! I seem to have made quite a few pink cards recently so fancied a change :)

Cute kitty is from the 'Bubbly' transparent set and I have coloured with promarkers and prismas. 

The card blank I made using the largest blossom nestability but it is still only tiny!!

There are 2 fabulous prizes this week from Penny Black and The Ribbon Girl.........all the details are over at the BLOG and while you are there check out all the DT cards, it always amazes me how different all the cards are from the same inspiration!

I am entering my card into the following challenges -
