Penny Black Challenge

Yes folks, I know it's rather late in the day to be making my first posting.. but that's because it's Rob's birthday today & I've been making sure that everything is ready for him coming home tonight. It's not that I didn't try earlier when I had a spare 5 minutes.. but that just happened to be at the same time as the system was down so that didn't quite work out for me.
Anyway, now to progress... the challenge this week over at Penny Black is to use the colours Black, White & one other colour of your choice... I decided upon pink.
Took my piece of spotty paper which was a freeby a while back with SC&P, then done some doodling on some of the spots, stamped the "Hugs" sentiment in others, punched some white spots for others then inked the edges. Next up I adhered a strip of black spotty ribbon across the paper & used some pink brads to attach it to the white base card.
Stamped my kitty image & water coloured slightly using a black Sakura glaze pen... cut this out into a big spot & doodled around the edge. This was then silicone mounted onto the card.

I'm off now to schedule Mr Blogger for to post a pic of Rob's birthday card later tonight. He hasn't seen it yet & I never quite know when he pops over to the blog for a wee nosey so have to ensure he has left the office before it uploads.

See you all again soon.
