Hope everyone is having a good Sunday, here in the Fens the rain has stopped at last and the suns making a reasonable effort, but judging by the clouds it won't be around too long.
I drew my colour inspiration from this pretty Cosmo Cricket DP and coloured my main image Penny Black PB40-021 For Goodness Sake with Copics. I stamped the image three times and decoupages and masked the base image to stamp the fence which is from Magnolia Tilda collection. The cobbles, flowers and grasses and Art Impressions. The large rose is one of the scummy new ones from Magnolia........have you seen the colours, how to choose.......well you can't really, so it's probably no surprise I have a bag of them sitting in my craft room along with the lovely matching beady leaves.
The sentiment is Hobby Art GR435. I cut the second circle on the sketch from a doily with a Nestie, the middle panel was run through the Big Shot with a Cuttlebug folder and the border are Martha Stewart doily lace. Some lace, ribbon, gems and pounced butterflies to finish.
And it's the last day of the Premiership, I'll miss my footie like crazy, but we do have the world cup coming up.......not sure if that is good or not, but we can but hope for positive things. An yesterdays 20/20 match was exciting so more of that to come this week.
A card to share for this weeks Penny Black challenge where they have a sketch......and a perfect chance to use some of the new goodies from Sir Sampalot on one of my sample cards. As usual when I saw the circles I freaked, I always struggle with them, heavens knows why. Also a couple of new ones for me, well at least it's a long while since I entered so thought it was time. They are Flutterby Wednesday, plus two both celebrating their Birthday and have that the, Stamp Something and Simon Says.

Oh, I'm SO with you on the footie - I hate summers when there is no world cup or european champs to keep me going till August again!! I just hope next season is way more successful than this!! Go on Liverpool.

This is gorgeous Brenda. The colours are so cheery on a dull day.
Hope you have a good rest of weekend, despite the weather.
I won't be doing much as we had the South Stamp Show yesterday and I was helping by taking money for one of the stands. I'm so tired today I don't want to do a thing!
I saw Dee too as she was demoing for someone and it was good to catch up for a very short time.

Hi Brenda,
Just lapping up the sun here...it's not been too bad today, a little dull at times but to be honest the sun has popped out now and then...
I love the colours on this one, and have to say I spotted another stamp I have wanted for ages...The cobble one from Art Impressions, their stamps are so usefull, and I know I could get my moneys worth so it's one I intend to buy...
Gorgeous card Brenda and yes those flowers ARE beautiful!!!

Beautiful card/colours. Great use for a doiley. Love the lace and the beady leaves-havent seen them before. Amazing work.
geraldine
I love the circle cut from a doily Brenda. That's a great idea. The colours on this card are gorgous too.
Sorry I've not dropped by over the last week but had lots going on plus been to Port Sunlight show last weekend. I can see I've missed some beautiful creations but I was sorry to read of your friend's sad experience. I can never understand what satifaction anyone can get from passing off someone elses work as their own. I'm not saying I have never run with someone else's idea but I would always credit the original.
Hope your friend is getting over her upset.
Hugs

Hi Brenda, I do so love these PB images they really are so beautifully drawn, and your interpretations is fabulous and completely stunning. With love and hugs Shirleyx
Hi Brenda. I've just been having a catch up with your absolutely stunning cards. Those roses are just amazing.
The weather hasn't been too bad in Yorkshire, a cool wind but some sunshine, but where has the hint of Summer gone!!
I was gobsmacked at the cheek of some people, I agree they should be named and shamed!!!!!!
Hope all is well with you and yours and thank you for your lovely comments.

Adorable, gorgeous card Brenda and love the papers. The only thing about football I like is when Hubby watches it I can hide in my craftroom guiltless that I'm not spending time with him.
