HANG ON IN THERE




This card was made for this week's Penny Black Saturday Challenge which was to use a Brown colour scheme. Image is one of my favourite and has been used many times (my daughter is a musician)
Tried not to make the card too masculine.

NEWTON SAYS RELAX!!

..... as opposed to Frankie says Relax!!! - you have to be a certain age to understand this quote!!

Image printed and cut and layered from Newton Bear Card Software - a recent purchase from Ideal World. It has a fantastic set of images and little ditties - or 'The world according to Newton.' Border is Martha Stewart Flower and Vine punch. Ribbon from stash. Text created with Martha Stewart alpha punches (two in a set with first and second half of the alphabet) - a recent purchase from the U.S.A and just the right size for sentiments on cards.
