Purple, Cream and Brown


I have to confess when I saw this colour challenge of Purple, Cream and Brown on Penny Black Saturday Challenge and wonder what I was going to do when the new Cosmo Cricket Mitten Weather fell through my letterbox and then I accidentally brought this new Penny Black stamp and here's the end result.
Since I was using cream and the critters were stamped on white cardstock the blending tool and Old paper distressing pad came out once again and then it was used on everything except the cream ribbon.
Since its a Christmas card those Martha Stewart snowflakes had to be used with a few pearls to finish off.
I'm afraid you will see these critters again since they're so easy to colour.
Now don't forget to check out the team there's gorgeous inspirations all on one blog and of course there is two of the cutest stamps to win from Penny Black themselves.
I've decided to take images to colour which will help my with the loads of Christmas Cards I still have to do but taking my punches cos I know my scrapbuddies like to use them too.
