Something Monochromatic!

Well, it's Friday already which means there's a new challenge on Stamp Something today! The theme this week is monochromatic and decided to stick with black and white.




The image is, I think, Rubber Romance, and was courtesy of Jilli. It was this image which decided the colour of the card for me! It has been layered onto black and white Bazzill c.s. and did the same for the base of the card. Used some white grosgrain Dovecraft ribbon, a sentiment from Craftwork Cards layered onto black Bazzill c.s., and some sticky gems from Papermania to finish. Must admit, I do like the simplicity of this one!


Sorry I haven't been around but I'm sure you all understand why. Will have some more cards to show tomorrow.....I promise! Make sure you pop on over to Stamp Something and take a look because there's some scrummy candy on offer!

Awesome Jo! I thought about a similar color choice, but didn't have any other dark gray color to go with it, so I ended up with the pink.....that's ok though because I LOVE PINK!! Again, excellent job!

Many Blessings,
M.

Week 2 of Techniques

It’s the second week of Tando’s FB Live and the tutorial was by Jane Royston. This week the colours are more my style. I didn’t have the exact supplies so had to improvise a little. This was the end result... I love doing these tutorials.  I put aside time for me on a Saturday morning and just get lost in the moment...all worries are forgotten for an hour or so.  I would highly recommend it.

Chocolate Somethings

Friday again and Half Term has started! The boys finished school yesterday so hopefully, we've got a fun day together! The challenge on Stamp Something this week is chocolate - everybody's favourite! and there's one stamp I turn to when that word is mentioned. I've followed the sketch on Mojo Monday for this card. The image is from Penny Black and has been coloured with Promarkers. Cardstock is Bazzill Bling and papers are Doodlebug. Matted the image onto some c.s. which has been run through the Cuttlebug and threaded some ribbon through using SU slot punch. Finally added a brad from my stash . A big thank you to Jose for helping me with my images......love the way some of you girls have been putting a sneak peek at the top of your posts and Jose was nice enough (and clever enough) to explain how to do it. Hope you all have a great weekend.
