The Penny Black Saturday Challenge this week is 'Stars and Stripes'. For my card I used another PB cat stamp 'Home sweet home', I love these cats although I'm a bit wary of them IRL!!! I stamped it with versafine onyx black twice and coloured with Ranger Distress Inks. The second image I used for just the window shutters, cut these out and attached them to the complete image with dimension tape. I used two thicknesses of dimension tape so that the shutters would be slightly angled. The decoupage doesn't show that well in the photopgraph, I might take another picture and replace this one. I put the card blank through the Cuttlebug in the distressed stripes folder to give me the stripes element of the challenge and inked over it and around the edges with distress inks and a sponges. The image panel is mounted on Pumpkin coloured Bazzil Bling and also raised up on dimension tape. I punched a star from the Bazzil Bling and placed top left for the stars element. TFL.Back soon,
Chris
