I am afraid this card looks rather dull when in actual fact it is not.
The ribbon is a deep chocolate brown and although the DP is a sort of washed brown it still looks a wee bit sharper in real life.
Maybe it's because i am sitting outside and the light is reflecting off the screen... I hope so.
Well for the first time ever there is a bow on my card(if there ever was one before it would have been a bought one )This is compliments of the bowmagig sent to me by Shaz Keanly from Cape Town thanks again Sharon.
Enjoyed making this card as I love the Penny Black images just as I loved the Beatrix Potter images when I was younger, their faces and actions are so expressive.
I am entering the Penny Black Saturday all brown challenge , although there is a tiny bit of colour on the image I saw one of the DT members also used colour.
I followed the C.R.A.F.T sketch for this challenge and am also entering it for Crafty Cardmakers ...New technique (yes bows are techniques) and lastly
the Copics Colour challenge .
Pop over to these blogs they all offer prizes,lots of advise and there are lovely cards to view.
Might try to squeeze one more card in, or otherwise I might be popping over to your blog for a visit.
Put the kettle on please
that is a yummie card!!!!
