Hello there! It's another cutie pie Penny Black critter card today, sharing the last of the cards I made with the kit I created for the Time to Celebrate set. Once I was settled in for Christmas I made three cards one after the other and there were plenty of grins and giggles in the process. The mouse with balloons drifted in from the Birthday Critters set to help the hedgie celebrate.
When I was having fun with this card sketch I found that Spellbinders Hemstitch Rectangles worked out beautifully in the way they fit with each other. I used an oldie embossing folder for the background, and a flower punch for embellishment. The "celebrate" die is another Cottage Cutz steal-of-a-deal recent purchase. In the photo below I think you can see where the glitter is, but you know it's much prettier in real life.
I felt like I could go on and on with this basic card design, but this is the last of them for now. It's such a great way to use bits of designer paper, and this particular paper is an ages old Memory Box pack I'm trying to use up. I have so many new and/or not-yet-used pretty papers which I plan to break into, but the oldies must be used as well.
I love that you stopped by today and we'll do this again soon. Take care!
