Monochromatic Cards

Hi Stampers, welcome to Stamping Techniques 101 for November: our challenge this month is Monochromatic Cards

I decided to do my card all in white…silly me.  Does not show up well on  a video; but I did one for you anyway, it’s below.

 

While this card appears hard, it’s actually very easy as the Big Shot did all the work.  I used the Swirly Scribbles Thinlits for the angled plain piece at the top and the Flourish Thinlits for the beautiful die cut embellishment.  The background at the bottom is created with the Petal Burst Embossing Folder.

My sentiment is gold embossed so I took a liberty and added a gold bow too.

There is a video below and the supply list and card stock measurements are at the end of the post for you – enjoy.

And now it’s time to hop and see what the rest of the Design Team has chosen for our Monochromatic Cards Challenge this month:
