Totally Gorjuss Challenge 69 - Black +1 - DT

Today is a new challenge over at Totally Gorjuss and this week's theme is 'black plus one other colour' I have used blue. Again I have used a Lili of the Valley stamp and coloured with Promarkers. I never use black and to be honest don't really have papers in this colour but I had a old Basic Grey pad which I got to use for men's cards and it had a few sheets left in it and luckily they had black on , phew! and I have to be honest I am really pleased with the result such a change to my normal pink cards so maybe I will use black more often.
Anyway thanks for taking the time to visit me today and I will be back soon although I have a magazine commission to work on next week so no doubt that will take most of the week.

I am entering this card into the challenge over at Stamp Something which is 'flowers'

Crafty Catz Challenge #69 - Valentine's - DT

Hi, hope you are all well and looking forward to the weekend, it has been a bit warmer here this week so fingers crossed we might be able to get out to the park with the kids this weekend. The challenge this week over at Crafty Catz is Valentines or Love so I dug out one of my old Penny Black stamps and set to work, I rarely use these stamps but always love them when I do the hedgehogs are so cute. Well I hope you can join us this week and hope you all have a lovely day on Monday, we used to go out for a meal but with the cost and 2 kids if just isn't the same now but maybe that's just me getting old and boring lol!

I am entering this card into the challenge over at Stampin For the Weekend which is Valentines.
