Monochromatic Best of Brides and Babies

Best of Brides and Babies

It’s been a busy and fast week, hasn’t it?! I have been really working hard and time in the craft room has been pretty slim. I always miss being creative. This is how I refuel my “cup” so I decided that it was time to play with some paper! The Pals Paper Arts team is celebrating 200 challenges this week! I can’t tell you how fortunate I feel to be part of this great group of crafters! I have only met a handful of them but I feel like they are all very special people in my life. We share our ups and downs and encourage each other with our words of support. But, I digress…

The challenge this week is a sketch challenge – with a twist. We are encouraged to make a monochromatic card. I so LOVE monochromatic cards but I learned today that they are NOT as easy as they look. I really loved the textures of the embossing folders yet felt they needed to be broken up just a little. What do you think?

It’s All in the Details

  • Stamp Set: Best of Brides & Babies (retired)
  • Paper: Very Vanilla, Baked Brown Sugar
  • Ink: VersaMark, Baked Brown Sugar
  • SU Tools: Fancy Fan Emboss Folder, Modern Mosaic Emboss Folder, Delicate Designs Emboss Folder, Circle Collections Framelits
  • Finishing Touch: Baked Brown Sugar Stretch Trim, Pearls Basic Jewels, Clear Emboss Powder

 

This card is for a sweet couple we know who will be getting married in June. I sure hope they like it! AND, I hope you liked my card today! If you did, please take a minute and leave me a comment! I love hearing from you! And while you are at it, please sign up for email notifications (never more than 2-3 per week) and also “like” my Facebook page (I don’t flood your Newsfeed either).

Until next time,

Happy Stampin’!

  1. So very elegant, Debbie! Love the textures, especially the lacy scallop! And using the Baked Brown Sugar sets off the Very Vanilla perfectly! Great card. Off to pin!

  2. Very nice Debbie! I love the texture and just a touch of color. Thanks for playing with the PPA this week!
