Flowers in Blue

Hi my sweet blogging friends and happy Thursday :-)

Today I want to show you a card that I made for a 'monochromatic' challenge.
Boy.. this was literally a huge challenge for me ... I am usually so NOT a monochromatic crafter *g*
But that's what challenges are good for: they give us a reason to do something you otherwise would never do ;-)


card receipe:
  • stamps - Inkadinkado 'Flourishes' clear stamp set
  • inks - ColorBox blue pigment inks from ColorQueue
  • patterned papers - October Afternoon '5 & Dime'
  • cardstock - Bazzill
  • other supplies - Sew Sweet 'Aquarelle' crinkled seamless binding, Nestabilities classic and scalloped circles large, Kaisercraft blue rhinestone, Stickles, charm from stash, foam pads from stash, Glue Dots
challenges:
