Morning Folks!
A super excited post from me this morning!!
Last month I was invited to join the Penny Black Saturday Challenge as their guest designer for June - I was even more excited when I found out they are celebrating their 8th Birthday this month and that I'm invited to join the celebrations and blog hop!! What an honour for a Penny Black addict like me!! Thank you ladies!
The theme for this months challenge is
BIRTHDAYS
If you haven't visited the main blog already, all the details and blog hop order are here. Some of the DT are offering prizes on their blogs and there is also an extra prize up for grabs on the PBSC blog for those who complete the hop and leave comments as they go!
I've used another PB stamp 'rescued' from Ebay for my card, it's called Say Cheesecake and was really fun to colour with the trusty promarkers. I seem to be going through a phase of making masculine cards at the moment, this one is probably going to be for my photography mad husband! The sentiment is a very old magazine freebie (I think??) , papers are LOTV Country Gent and a piece of spotty paper from my scraps collection. The card is simply finished with an antique piece of Doodlebug ribbon and a few photo corners cut with a Die'sire die.
Here's the close up view (get it!!) of the cheeky little mice:
The prize on my blog is:
So don't forget to leave me a comment before you hop over to see the very talented Debby who is next on the hop!!
