Penny Black Saturday Challenge

October Challenge

Anything Goes

or the optional theme-

Too Cute To Spook

 Victorian Homes 40-091

I have had this cute vintage Penny Black stamp for a bit and have never used it. It's about time I guess! 

This is the card that didn't want to be made LOL. 

I colored the image and tried to cut it with my Scan N Cut. Oh my-- it cut the image into pieces like a jigsaw puzzle. I could  NOT figure out what was going on...in the end, I found a transparent PB tree stamp stuck to the bottom of my cutting mat and the mat was getting stuck in my machine! Whew, I was so nervous my machine had given up the ghost, but in the end found a missing stamp!!

I turned the cut up pieces upside down and taped them all together and then cut the image out with my scissors. I saved it!  I cut the bats and fence with my Silhouette and they didn't fit so I recut those pieces again-this time I did it right. 

I used the Tim Holtz moon mask (I love this stencil!) and a Hero Arts brick stencil for the background. I added a spooky little Silhouette cut fence and the perfect Pink and Main sentiment from an old set, Smell My Feet.
