Soothing Sunday

This time is Carole's turn for the sketch on Friday Sketchers and when I saw it I immediately thought of this Penny Black stamp for the space for text, I was going to use a Sarah Kay stamp but this Sweet Ebony one is called Reflective and seemed more appropriate. I used crate papers, quickutz flourishes, prima flowers, the brads are from Poppicraft and I did the stitching by hand.

CJ still not finished but I'm determined to do so today and I need to do my Q page for my A-Z journal, also started a mini book for a friend need to finish that too.
