Swinging Saturday


You wouldn't believe how long I've had this Penny Black Stamp and never used it but its one of those stamps that you must have. You can't quite see but its all been layered and there were a lot, I'll have to start to photo on a jaunty angle again so you can see them.
Of course I've used a sketch this time from Sketch and Stash, but there is a sneaky addition the bit of ribbon and well done me cos the sketch last time I came in the top 3.
The papers are Lucky Charm by American Craft and the flowers are EK success but very old now so I'm not sure if it still available but an old favourite of mine.
So this weekend its card writing and wrapping presents for the trip up North in a couple of weeks but that does mean I have to make some quick and plain tags.

What a fabulous card. I have had this stamp for years too and used it only a few times - mainly because my girls wouldn't want the same stamp each year on their birthday cards. (I need more gitls.lol)It's never looked this good though. Love what you've done with it.
