Penny Black - Frame It

The Penny Black Challenge this week is:

Frame It

Fairly simple eh? Well, no! So I ended up drawing a freehand frame around the image as none that I had tried looked right! Plus, if it does count, the heart embellishment is a frame - its a little shaker box!


Anyway, the image came from Kath in a recent Funky Hand DT image swop and its called 'hugs'. I coloured it with watercolour pencils and a bit of inking around the edges. The backing paper Jozza gave me when we met up recently (I actually have the same papers but in 8x8). Ribbon is from my stash, and the hearts, well, there were a number of them in the pack, all different. Not got a clue where I got them from, but bought two packs!
  • Backing paper: From Jozza
  • Image: 'Hugs' from Kath
  • Ribbon: From my stash
  • Embellishments: From my stash
