Well today at the moment looks a little brighter - but i wonder how long it will last !!!
Ooo how i love my Penny Blacks but when I have to choose a stamp / image, when the challenge is so open like the Penny Black Saturday Friends challenge of 'Pesky Critters', i get all panicky, as i never know what to pick, then whilst checking other challenges i found a couple for 'Butterflies' and decided on 'Water Lily Skiing' - also it gave me a chance to play with the fabby new papers i bought in 'Crafty Emma's' sale by DCWV, which are aptly named 'The Blossoms & Butterflies Stack' and although these are 2 colours i wouldn't normally put together, i'm pleased with how it has turned out.

Hi Sam
Sorry, I am a little late in catching up with the world!!
Loving your card. Great image and fabby backing papers.
You asked where I got the bling from for my wedding stationery. It was from a place called The Handcrafted Card Company. You just need to go to their craft store and you will find lots of lovely goodies.
Love Jules xx
