Joy to the World

Hello to you all...I have made this card for my hubby,he was sitting 15feet away from me while I made it and is totally oblivious to it,great isn't it how we can get away with all sorts of things and our dearly beloveds no nothing about it.....Any way I have used this gorgeous Penny Black stamp from the Joy to the World set,
I have inked with black Versafine and clear embossed the image and sentiment then coloured the image with Promarkers. I know I have put gems on this but I know Tommy will love this.I hope you like it.xxx
I am entering this into
