Penny black challenge - funky Christmas





I have been moaning that I haven't had enough crafting time recently. So last night I made time and during I'm a Celebrity I came up with this for the Penny Black Challenge "Funky Christmas". I don' have any christmassy Penny Black stamps so I had to be creative. I made a window. In London quite a few people put lights up outside their homes so I added a string of lights (quite funky ones, Ithink) they are paperartsy stamps. I then stamped some penny black images and coloured. I hand drew the hat on the dog. I attatched them on the inside to make them appear to be at the window looking for father christmas. On the inside i added some detail to make it appear interesting through the glass. It's snowing 8.43am here in London!
