The topper that I have used is "Nose to Nose" Penny Black Stamp coloured in with promarkers.
I have die cut this image using Spellbinders "Fleur De Lis Rectangles". For embellishments I have used metal corners, ribbon and a flower. For my sentiment I have used letter stickers and put onto white card and backed that with brown co-ordinating card. Items can be purchased from J & C Creations.

"On Your Special Day"
This card is ideal for any occassion. This is made using a Penny Black stamp, Lilac Backing Paper & Card, Dollie, Ribbon, Flowers and hat pins. This card was very spimply to do and I think is very plain but pretty in a way. With the two mice holding a rose this could be for any birthday/anniversary or wedding. The stamp has been coloured in with promarkers and distressed around the edges using Tim Holtz distress Inks. The products I have used have been purchased from J & C Creations.

"Little Boy Blue"
This is a great challenge this month folks!! All of the Penny Black Stamp range from J & C Creations are all fantastic and it is very hard to choose which one is my favourite. For this card I have used "Fly Away". How cute is he!!!! I have made this 8 x 8 card by using a blue backing paper with various wording written on it and made 2 tabs down the side to look abit like a book. I have cut the stamp out with a spellbinders die cut. For the little added extras I have used candys, string and a tag with Happy Birthday stamped on it. To give the card abit more depth I have distressed all around the edge using Tim Holtz distress inks colour weathered wood. All of my toppers are coloured in using promarkers.
