November's Penny Black Saturday Challenge!

Good Morning!
Well we're steaming ahead into November already, it'l soon be Christmas!
 It's time for a new challenge over at PENNY BLACK SATURDAY CHALLENGE today and the theme is 'Anything Goes + Option of Tags!'

I haven't played along with the option this month and instead opted for this Clean & Simple card. I've used a new stamp that was released this year and dug out my colouring pencils for the foliage parts of the design. I've had some Spectrum Noir pencils for years and I'm ashamed to admit this is the first time they've been used lol

A Trio of Quick Floral Cards!

Good Afternoon!
It's been such a long time since I've had time to craft, life has just gotten in the way of crafting this month! However I had a spare hour this morning so I thought I'd make the most of it and make a trio of Clean & Simple cards that weren't too time consuming. I've added Birthday sentiments to two of them but kept one of them free so that I can either add one at a later date or use it for any occasion.

All the images that I've used are from an old LOTV Art Pad but don't worry, you can now buy each of the designs over on their etsy store as digital downloads simply by clicking the following icons ...
I'd like to enter this into the following challenges -
CUTE CARD THURSDAY - SPOTS & DOTS
 INGREDIENTS -
LOTV Full Colour Simply Print images & Sentiments
Doodlebug Sprinkles & Papermania Shimmer Dome Stickers
Cheesecloth

 Thanks for stopping by, hopefully I'l be back in the craft room again soon!
HAPPY CRAFTING!
