Penny Black 

Second card for today features a new stamp that I brought from the NEC last week....just fell in love with this cute little fella and his dog. I've done the image in paper piecing this is only the second time I've done this but its quite effective, just added some painted areas i.e.his hands and face and highlighted using sakura pens.
Challenges are:
Penny Black......use check papers, background as well as trousers and cap.
One stop craft .......paper piecing
Stampavie.....Friends.
Charisma........Animals
Sketch Saturday.......sketch.
Our Creative corner.......Use buttons.
