Super Cute with Penny Black!


I am trying to do this every week and here goes with another "Just Because" card! I found some new stamps (well new to me) at Hobby Lobby in their last stamp sale and decided to give one of them an ink up and play in a few challenges!

Challenges:
Love To Create - Anything Goes (3 entries only)
Penny Black Allsorts - Cute (3 entries only)
Penny Black Saturday - No Patterned Paper
Chocolate Coffee and Cards - Bingo! (I chose No Patterned Paper, Punches and Embossing)
Pixie Dust - Embossing
Creative Card Crew - Ribbon
Ribbon Carousel - Anything Goes with Ribbon
Die Cut Diva's - Pins, Pearls and/Or Punches
Ladybugs Crafts Ink - Birthday
Southern Girl - Get Your Girl On
Going Grey - It's A Girl Thing (2 entries only)
Crafty Creations - Little Girls
Tuesday Throwdown - Use some Sparkle
Emerald Faeries - Dazzle It
Prairie Fairy - Flowers


Card Recipe:
Image - Sweet Thing by Penny Black
Medium - Copic Markers
Ribbon - Unknown
Flowers - Wild Orchid Crafts and Prima
Banner Border Punch - Fiskars
Doily Die - English Tea Party By Cheery Lynn Designs
Label Die - Spellbinders Labels 22
Embossing Folders - Flowers and Butterflies by Lifestyle Crafts
Sentiment - My Sentiments Exactly
Glitter - Stickles
Pearls - Bridal dept
Spritz - Sheer Shimmer Spritz in Sparkle






I stamped the cupcake part twice and popped it up for dimension. For the sparkle I added Stickles and gave the flowers a little spritz with shimmer too!
I am not one to do the "No Patterned Paper" challenges but I thought I'd give it a go and in the end I was pretty pleased with the results and I hope you like it too!
