Hi Everyone!
I hope your Monday is treating you well. Today's card is a Penny Black card. I don't often do PB because my supply of PB stamps is limited; but a very sweet person stamped this image out for me so I could vary things a bit. Here's a frontal below:
Ahhh that's better. As most of you know I am not a glittery person. (dont like the mess) but the PB challenge called for glitter (*gasp*) and glitz.So I dug out my glitter jars, dusted them off and grabbed the glue.By the way, If you're looking for the glitter it's in the flower centers. C'mon folks, baby steps here. lol
a close up:
Can you see it? Look closer, it's sparkly. :-)
My recipe is:

Colors: Prismacolor pencils

And for those of you feeling bad that you didn't get a chance to make a card today, let me show you a couple of pics of my card in making:
See, you may not have been able to make a card, but that also means no mess! (I really should have taken a pic of the floor as that's where mosty of my mess ends up!)
For any who may be interested, I'm also passing the word that PB Allsorts is having a DT call. You can find the info here:
Have a great week!

Great card, Dorcas! Way to go with the glitter, I really love the look, but you're right---very messy (almost not worth the effort). However, do love the look of those flowers and also that great pearl outline on the hammock.
oh wow! absolutely adorable! great colors and stitching and I love how you used the little pearls.
