Cute for Penny Black Saturday

Hi there.  I'm so glad you stopped by!

I'm excited to be back guest designing at Penny Black Saturday Challenge.

This time I went with the cute option.


This little guy had been stamped and colored and was patiently waiting for his
turn to land on a card.  He looks like he is very happy to be carrying that Christmas
tree  doesn't he?  No die so I had to fussy cut him and fortunately didn't remove
his tail in the process.

His background was brushed on with Distress Oxide inks and the frame was die
cut three times to give it extra dimension.

The Penny Black Saturday Challenge is asking for Cute or Spooky cards
using Penny Black products.  I hope to see your card in the gallery.

Challenges:
Penny Black Saturday - ATG using Penny Black products with the option of Cute or Spooky
Christmas Kickstart #91 - Colorful Christmas 

  



Card Recipe
Stamps:  Holly Jolly Critters, Festive Snippets (both PB)
Ink:   Memento Tuxedo Black, Speckled Egg, Faded Jeans (DOX), Real Red (SU)
Paper:   Neenah Solar White
Other:  Copic Markers, Classy Frames die (PB), Chunky White Frantage EP (SP), Kars Snow EF (ret Cuttlebug)


Enjoy!

Cute is an understatement for this card and I see you used that Kars embossing folder. To this day I'm hunting it on ebay. Love that little character and love the way you framed him. This is adorable, Bonnie!

Such a sweet mouse carrying his tree. Love the colouring and the layout, especially the way you split the embossed panel to make space for the sentiment.

Gorgeous card Bonnie - love how you kept the rest of the card simple to keep the focus on that cute critter!
