Not feeling myself today

I look out of my window and can see people crossing the street to avoid walking past our house...well they should be. We all have stinking colds and I'm not in the mood for crafting but my little one has been looking forward to taking part in the new Crafty Monkey's challenge blog.

Now I would like to point out that I have not been influenced at all by my Daughter's ability, it's just that I have a cold and I found a different challenge blog that I want to try as well as the Penny Black challenge.

It is scary how alike the two cards look though. My card was already made and tucked away safely before Georgie came into the room. I cannot believe how vibrant her colouring of the image is and how she didn't want (or need) any input from me.

I Used:
Papers - Basic Grey
Cardstock - Bazzill
Flowers - Prima & Poppicrafts
Brad - Papermania
Stamp - Penny Black
Sentiment Stamp - Woodware and Impression Obsession (which have both been flocked with Doodlebug crushed velvet).
