Monochrome with a splash of colour

 Hey there!
I am playing the retrosketches RS#189 challenge with this card.
I decided to play with a monochromatic colour theme with a pop of colour...I was so happy to find this paper pack...I had forgotten I had it! It is the 'Mono Paper Pack' from Paper mania.

I decided to over lay the papers with vellum(..just 'cause I liked the printed paper so much) and stitched the vellum paper on with white embroidery floss.
The flowers  and leaves are made using punches and the sentiment is a peel-off sticker from Anita's.

Thanks so much for stopping by...

Have a great day!

Friday mashup challenge 105

Had my thinking cap on for this one...

Here is my take on this weeks Friday Mashup challenge sketch.

Here I have heat embossed the background with the 'houndstooth' background stamp from Impression Obsession and dry embossed the square panel with my cuttlebug Happy Birthday embossing folder.

The sentiment is a peel off sticker and I finished it off with a gold flecked cord (unfortunately not very visible!).

This card was hard to photograph!!!

Thanks for stopping by...

Enjoy!
