The challenge this week at http://pennybfriendssaturdaychallenge.blogspot.com/ was to make a gift for a friend. A little while back I bought some vellum envelopes containing rose petals to put in the bath - I had the idea that I could remove the shop label and make one of my own to personalise the gift.
Like lots of thing I didn't get round to doing it till now. Love the way 'challenges' spur you on to do things that you intended to but never got round to. I used a cute Penny Black stamp for the central image and some lovely clear border stamps to create the borders. All the images were coloured using water colour pencils. I added some orange stickles to the flower centres and the bee. The tag is stamped using a Studio G stamp.
