Achoo!! Achoo!!

Hi everyone, not a happy bunny today! My lovely husband has given me his lovely cold!! Am feeling pretty rubbish so I decided to make a card to fit three challenges to make life easier. I am entering this into:


I have used this Penny Black stamp as it is about the only stamp I have with food on (shall have to go shopping LOL). I knew this fab pink would be perfect with black and white but it did feel strange leaving the mice almost uncoloured, I hope its worked! I used my trusty EK Success Cutter Bee Bug and a white opaque pen for the faux stitching.


Image: Penny Black stamp set
Papers: Doodlebug paper & Love Potion Core Colour card stock
Medium: Promarkers - Magenta, Rose Pink & Cool Grey 1
Embellishments: Raffia Lace & ribbon from stash, sentiment is by Hero Arts, Glossy Accents
Tools: EK Success Cutter Bee Bug

Thanks for looking!
