A Monochromatic Card

Happy Tuesday! Here is my card for today's Color Challenge at SCS. The challenge is monochromatic cards. I love the look of monochromatic cards -- they're just so pleasing to the eye. For my DT work I often use images that need coloring, so therefore I tend to use a lot of color -- it was nice to stamp a little more simply today.

I stamped Linen on the card base in Old Olive classic ink. For the main image, I stamped the trees from Lovely as a Tree in Old Olive craft ink, then I heat embossed it with Iridescent Ice embossing powder. I wish you could see the shimmer -- it's pretty IRL! The sentiment is from Motivational Centers by Cornish Heritage Farms -- it's one of my favorite quotes. I sponged more Old Olive around the image panel, and I embellished with Old Olive brads and ribbon.

I'll be back tomorrow with the ATS Wednesday challenge, so I hope you'll be back! Thanks so much for the visit today -- have a great day! :)
