Penny Black Saturday Challenge

Penny Black has a monthly challenge that starts on the first Saturday 

of the month and ends on the last Saturday.

I have been playing with stamp sets that have had for quite some time, 

and a new Penny Black die that I wanted to try. 

Here is my card for this challenge I am going with anything goes. 

The supplies are: Penny Black stamp, A Present and a new edger die called Wishes. 

I stamped in black and used clear embossing powder over top. I originally 

wanted to color all of it. I ended up paper piecing just the box part of the present. 

I did color the rest including the cute bear.

Gina K Coral Reef card stock for most of the base and a Striped design paper from My Favorite Things 6X6 paper pack. I went searching for a stamp that said Birthday

and found one that I had never used before. Not unusual! 

I will enter this on the current challenge at Penny Black

Come on over and join me.

Penny Black Saturday Challenge

I made this card for the Peny Black Saturday Challenge Anything goes optional flowers and hearts. But that challenge has ended. Fortunately, the challenge for March is still anything goes. I have decided to enter my card anyway. 

I sat down and relaxed with a water coloring of this image from Penny Black called Loads of Lots. I have had it for a long time and use it often. Isn't that hedgehog so darn cute with a load of hearts? 

After water coloring the image I cut it out and also used Gina K Designs master layouts 1 to frame it. 

The sentiment is also from the same stamp. 

I am entering this card in the Penny Black Saturday Challenge  anything goes
