Penny Black Surprise-SFYTT Nov 11


I had to take a coloring break  and  go color one of my new Penny Black images. Even though this is really a springish type image...I made it into a Christmas card, because that is what I need in my card stash! The challenge this week at Penny Black Saturday Challenge is Gold and Presents.

Although you can not tell, I have three layers  of dimension on the image and it looks very fun in person. I used some lovely green May Arts ribbon and made a triple bow.  I then added a few touches of gold stickles for a touch of glimmer.

I used the Sketch For You To Try November 2011.

Oh boy, it felt good to craft again!

Thanks for stopping by..I will be seeing you soon!

    This is so cute! Love how you made this image work for Christmas -- if you hadn't said anything I would have thought it was a fun, fresh image for Christmas. Beautiful coloring, design, and the dimension looks fantastic.
