Sentimental Sundays #73

Hey Sentimental Fools. Another Sunday, another Challenge!!

[Warning: SOG heavy post. I know you love it! ;)]

Over at Sentimental Sundays today we want to see your..

MONOCHROME

creations.

I was TOTALLY inspired by THIS card from Coops earlier in the week and just HAD to HAD to do something similar. The whole sepia look is just too delicious to pass up.

Here is what I came up with.

Really simple layout, no doodling, no distressing. Was I ill, I hear you ask. No, no I wasn't. I just wanted all eyes on sepia Mae! ;)

I have paper pieced her bow using some paper from My Minds Eye - Lime Twist: Life of the Party collection pack and used the same paper to create a scalloped strip near the bottom to draw attention to the sentiment from PTI which has been stamped in Rich Cocoa ink.

I have used Walnut, Cocoa and Cinnamon PM's to colour the darkest areas, and Tan and Almond for her skin. Obviously using limited colours you can't create as much depth. Maybe this is something I gotta try out using my Copics as I have a few more E's.

I would like to enter this card into these challenges:
