Hello Friends . . .
Here we are at the start of yet another week (wow they sure are going by quickly) and even though I should be either doing house work or outside work I chose to create a card to share here on my blog after being inspired by KathyK's card HERE while doing my challenge blog commenting.
I have had this Penny Black stamp set (Allegro) for years and had totally forgotten about it until seeing Kathy's card.
It was always one of my favorites! Obviously over the years my 'stash' has increased & some of those oldies but goodies have gotten forgotten.
The current challenge over on the Penny Black Challenge Blog is Anything Goes w/Optional 'Pastel Colours' so of course I just had to play along! Here's what I've created . . .
Taking a white card stock panel I used the residual ink in my small figure sponges to create the pastel background colors. Then a light spray of TH distress ink spray. After a little time to dry, it was time for stamping. I finished off my image panel with a few pastel colored Nuvo Crystal Drops.
I find such wonderful inspiration from my fellow crafters ... thanks Kathy!!

Once again time is getting away from me here in my crafting cave so I'd
better quit playing around and go get some serious work done
lol. Hope you have a wonderful day ahead!
As always, thanks SO MUCH for taking the time to stop by!
