i love this penny black ‘botanical notes’ cling stamp because of the collage image that i always seem to have trouble creating. i watercoloured with distress ink pads, then stamped the flower twice more to cut and layer it. the thank you was die cut from my new penny black creative die set and a marianne design leaf flourish die. be sure to check out the beautiful creations from my team mates and the fabulous prizes on offer at the penny black and more challenge blog and remember, you can use any company’s stamped image as your focal point, just no digis.

this is my DT card for the may penny black and more challenge theme of anything goes. I coloured this hedgie image from the penny black wonderful 30-029 clear set with distress ink pads and derwent inktense pencils; the sentiment is hero arts. i doodled some grass and lightly sponged the edge of the image panel, which is popped on foam tape.
