Basic Grey (Archaic & Lilykate papers): Penny Black & Sketch Saturday challenges

Three challenges is one with this card, woohoo!! This is fortunate as I have no heating downstairs and no computer of crafting stuff upstairs (soon to be remedied I hope - I'm cold!).
The sketch is this weeks Sketch Saturday (a really enjoyable one to work with) and the Basic Grey challenge was a choice of colours - I chose the brown and cream one. Finally the Penny Black challenge is 'Thanks a bunch'. The basic cardstock is cream linen and I used Lilykate paper as a base and the striped Archaic as a feature paper. Hedge is coloured with watercolours and the sentiment is stamped and I finished the card with flowers, ribbon, pinwheels and brads from stash.
Papers : Basic Grey - Lilykate and Archaic
Cuttlebug and Nestabilities
Stamps: Penny Black & Hero Arts
