Penguin Pals

Hi,

Well as it warms up to be the hottest week so far, i'm uploading this while it's still coolish !! and before i over heat. We find out today who H's new teacher is and who is going to be in his class, i so hope it's with at least one of his friends ( with H's school they have 3 classes for years 1 & 2, etc, so they get mixed up every year).

When i saw today's image, i just simply fell in love with it : Penny Black - 'Penguin Pals / 1535H / 1999' and i've embossed round the image with : Penny Black - 'Christmas Treasures / 30-019' in crystal embossing powder, the papers are : Echo Park - 'Tis The Season' and for the 2 strips i've cut them, with my very useful: Die-Namics - 'Fishtail Flags Stax, the buttons and twine are from my stash.

Not sure if first photo shows off embossing :
