I love Penny Black stamps and I found this challenge site through a friend's blog.
The challenge is to create a project using the first Penny Black stamp you ever bought. Now, I think mine was the butterfly .... it could have been the Happy Birthday stamp .... but I am pretty sure I bought the butterfly first!
I have used this stamp over and over and over 
again. I have used it in every different colour way and I have still never found a butterfly stamp that I like more!
At one point I used this butterfly on everything I made.
I shall stop now .... I am beginning to sound like someone with an obsession problem! LOL
This card design was kind of lifted from the Stamper's sampler .... I say "kind of" because all the stamps they used were different and they did n't 3d their butterfly or add beads ..... but the basic LO is definitely from them. I really like the simplicity of the design.
I am looking forward to next week's Penny Black challenge already!
