Good morning lovely bloggers, hope you are having sunshine in your part of the world.
This is week 18 for the challenges at Less is More
and the theme is MONOCHROME. Mandi and Chrissie, the LIM Divas, have very kindly given a description of exactly what Monochrome is, alongside their inspirational DT cards.
I have used one of my oldest, and most-loved stamps - Gracious Lady from Hero Arts.
The image is stamped with Staz-on Azure, and the shading has been added with Derwent watercolour pencils, used dry.
The sentiment is from Penny Black. An Eazi Scoreboard was used to add a couple of embossed lines.
Whisper White card from Stampin' Up.
Have a happy day ...
