Penny Black Challenge #83 - Sketch!!


Hello everyone and welcome to week 83 of the Penny Black Saturday Challenge. Hope you're all keeping safe and warm in this horrendous wintry weather, and that you'll take the opportunity to stay cosy indoors if you can and indulge in a bit of crafting time!

This week we have a special treat for you ... not just one, but a choice of two sketches for you to follow, drawn by our talented teamie Nat.




To enter this week's challenge, just make any craft project following one of the above sketches ... the only other rule is that you must use a Penny Black image or sentiment somewhere on your creation.

This week's priz is a fab $20 online store voucher from our regular sponsor 1-2-3 Stitch

So why not pop over to the DT members' blogs to see their inspiring creations, and then cosy up in your craft space and get started :-)

Here's my card, which followed sketch 2.


I decided to make a friendship card as it meant that I could use my text charm with a flower for the "sentiment" element of the sketch.

I'd also like to enter this for the following challenges:

ABC - L is for layering ... this one has more layers of paper than I normally use :-)
Flourishes Timeless Tuesday - Feel the Love

And here's the inside ...

Recipe:

Main image: Penny Black "Embrace" (2892K) coloured with watercolour pencils;

Sentiment (inside): Penny Black; Papers: Bo Bunny;
Supplies: large pearl brad and spacer from The Hobby House; adhesive ribbons by DCWV; "friends" charm from Quixotic Paperie; large pink flower from my stash;
Tools: large classic circles and large classic scalloped circles nestabilities.

Looking forward to seeing all your creations.
