Penny Black challenge mid month reminder


How time flies.This is a mid month reminder for the Penny Black and More " Sew special" challenge. All you need is some stitching somewhere on your card. It  can be hand, machine, or drawn stitching like I have on my card. There is still plenty of time for you to enter and there are several prizes up for grabs.  If you are looking for inspiration, the design team have made some beautiful cards. Make sure you check out all the rules before you enter and remember NO DIGIS allowed.
As you all know I love bright and cheerful colours so I used  bright and fresh blue spotted paper and spring green card,  flowers and pearls. I die cut a scalloped oval, swirls for leaves and gorgeous butterfly die cuts too. My Penny Black image was coloured with Promarkers. I like my fun card and it will be winging it's way to a Birthday girl.
I have also entered my card into the following challenges:-
