Just Because

This is the card that started my all day crafting on Wednesday, I just took awaiting coloured image and just made a card with thinking too much about the layout.
Now really its suppose to be Dorothy but you wouldn't really think that unless you coloured her slippers in ruby red. Mo's named her Kansas and I can't remember what the papers are all I know I was cutting the pretty daisy paper and I didn't want to hid it either.
In the end I made a trellis with a Martha Stewart punch and punched out the tiny flowers with the snowflake leaves you can see where I got the inspiration for my LIM card this week.
The doggy basket was a bit more complicated to layer cos I wanted the blanket to layer too, got there in the end but for a while I had an amputated arm!
Julie has used Kansas lately check out her amazing Wizard of Oz card

All I got is a Photograph

When I saw the theme Sing a long for Penny Black Saturday Challenge this week all I could think of was this stamp and Ringo Starr Photograph. Love that it gave me the opportunity to use these cute mice.
The papers are Autherique and the image is quite large so not much chance for embellishments, had to settle for some faux brads.
The sentiment is also a Penny Black from one of the clear set. Made it grungy with blending some distress inkpads to match the papers. I think it ticks all the boxes for a mans card too.
Do hope you can join us the theme is music so you don't necessary have to chose a song like I have but it might help if you don't have any music Penny Blacks images. Don't forget to check out the team they've fabulous creations to inspire you too and we have a Guest DT spot for a prize this week too.
