Monochrome

Hi Everyone

Another Craft Punked Blog Challenge for you today and the theme is Monochrome.  So i really looked forward to making this card as i do love monochrome papers etc and i had a few ideas from my crafty stash at home that would be perfect.  Or i could have coloured an image all in one colour.  But Claire Hamer had other ideas and invited me for tea so how could i refuse this kind offer.

She is a huge fan of Papertrey ink stamps and i have to say i am loving them too, although i am resisting the urge to buy.  So my invitation for tea also comes with an invitation to get crafty and share all of her goodies so i thought i would kill two birds with one stone as they say.

So after i sat and watched Andy Murray win his quarter-final match against Ferrer i was cheeky and asked if the card i could make could be monochrome so it would fit with my challenge card.  Here's what i came up with.  This paper and black card was out of Claire s scrap box and this is one of the new stamps she just had delivered with matching dies. Its very different for me i know but i love it.  Its one of those cards i keep looking at.

And i asked Claire if i could bring hers home too so i could share it with you and she chose pink for hers.  Just a slightly different stamp but the same dies. Isn't it fab?  What a fab night, Andy Murray then tea then crafting, cant think of anything better.........

Hope you like them as much as i do.
