Penny Black Saturday

Having to schedule this post so hope Mr Blogger behaves, taking MIL back this morning so what have time to get onto the PC.
So this weeks challenge on Penny Black Saturday Challenge is to use a Penny Black stamp to make a background. So if you have some clear set theres probably small stamps or in my case I use heart scroll stamp and just randomly stamped then coloured the hearts and flowers. Of course looking at it now I could have a least worked it out a bit better.
I made a frame using a MS around the page punches but its always too big and at least with this style I can cut it down you just about see my joins.
The pink card I just scored lines evenly apart, a bit or ribbon to bring the top and bottom together. Then I use a little Hedgie and once again I use square nesties. Yes the sentiment is peel offs.
Check out the team for more inspiration and look forward to seeing what everyones comes up with.

Happy 30th Birthday
David

Hi Debby!
I just love your work and have been a follower for awhile. I have to say I just love all your cards (today's being no exception), but I just have to ask . . . what do you use to cut out your images . . . they always seem so perfect. I really would like to learn how to cut my images out much neater and have to admit turning the paper instead of the scissors has helped immensely, but need some help.
TIA for any advice you have.
Hugs,
Katherine
