Distressed Penny Black

I love messing about with ink and stamps like this.
I made this card with this week's Penny Black challenge in mind.
For this Emboss Resist card I used a stamp called Golden Leaves from Penny Black. I used SU Sahara Sand, Crumb Cake and Baja Breeze inks for the sponging and Stazon Dove Grey for the overprinting.
The sentiment is also Penny Black and the couple of little swallows are from an Inkylicious clear stamp set.
It was fun!

    It's a good job you like dabbling with inks as you make gorgeous cards with this technique:)
