Penny Black Saturday Challenge.....Ribbons

Here is my effort for this weeks Penny Black Challenge. The only rule was to use ribbon and at least one Penny Black image.

I have used "Trail By The Tail" Penny Black stamp, this is the first time I have used it and am really pleased with the results. I have added some glitter to the bouquet (of course!) and have stamped onto 350gsm watercolour paper.

I have edged my stamped image and all elements of the card with a black chalk ink, even the bow. The ribbon tags have been attached with eyelets and the imaged section has been added to the card using 3d foam tape.

These colours are a little more muted than I would normally use but I love the SEI dotty paper and have been waiting to use it for ages!
