Be Punny

Today sees the start of a new challenge at Card Makin' Mamas Challenge and the theme for this challenge is "Be Punny".  So we want to see your cards which have a play on words on them.  Here is what I have done:


Although its not a funny one it does have a play on words.  The stamp and sentiment are from Clear Dollar Stamps they are both digis.  I have coloured the image with my Copics and distressed the edges with Antique Linen Distress Ink.  The image has been cut and matted with a Spellbinders Nestie.  The papers are from Linen Closet by DCWV - gorgeous papers.  The border is a die and I'm not sure who makes it.  The little bow is also a die cut by Lil' Inker.

Please pop over to Card Makin' Mamas for some more inspiration from the DT.  You have two weeks to enter your card in and we will love to see what you come up with.  Thanks so much for looking and take care xx

    This card is great! loving the colours you have chosen. Thanks for stopping by my WoYWW post earlier this week, the huge bottle of Collall on my desk is from cuddlybuddly.com works out a fair bit cheaper than the smaller bottles, but the bottle is too big to use so I just saved a couple of empty small ones and fill them up :o) x
