OSCC Monochrome Tones

Image
By sparklingblackrose
Good evening everyone, sorry this is late-the day really got away from me! Hope you are all well :-) Here I am with my DT card for One Stop Craft Challenge where our theme this week is 'Monochrome tones'. I chose one of my favourite Stampin Up stamps which I coloured with Promarkers to compliment the Papermania Heather Capsule Collection papers and gems from a few years ago. All I added to this was some pearl embellishments, American Crafts Polka dot ribbon and Coredinations card.
Haha just noticed in my photo a little ant has decided to have his moment of fame on the card! :-)

I would like to enter this into the following challenges:
Crafty Katz Weekly Challenge: Lets add Sparkle
Daring Cardmakers: Just Because
Simply Create Too: Use your Stash
Dutch Dare: Diamonds and Pearls
Paper Crafting Journey: Anything Goes
Simply Create Challenge: Anything Goes
Divas By Design: Anything Goes

Everybody Art Challenge: Oval
