this week’s penny black saturday challenge theme is recycling. the green plaid corners and border are leftover pieces from last week’s pbsc card; plus, wool is recycled from sheep. my friend, anne ryan, knows how much i love penny black stamps, so she sent me this stamp at christmas – thanks, anne! i watercoloured the ewe and covered it in flower soft. i stamped the head twice, popped it on top and added flower soft grass. the sentiment is hand printed with a marker.
iÂ’m also submitting this to the Spotted Canary Spring Challenge and two Flower Soft challenges: the March monthly and the furry friends weekly. thanks for looking.

Well this is just something I'll tell you. Just the other day I kept going back to this image and thought I must have this. I guess I did have it but only until it went your way. Isnt this image just the sweetest. It's the boots that really caught my attention ... I guess twice. Oh sometimes I'm just not a rocket scientist! Your card is just too sweet. Oh, what a talent you are my sweet friend.

I have to tell you ... I would love you place all your cards into my faves but I could never do what you do. Hey, I see you'e used your favorite colors together. Yes, that sun must have been shining today as you said. You go, girl. Shake and bake, baby.

This totally makes me giggle! And I think, if I'm not mistaken, that the name of this stamp is "Plimsoll PETE"--am I right? PETUNIA is adorable with her recycled wool and pink boots!
