Happy Day All!
It's time once again for a new challenge at
Darlene is our hostess this week and she has chosen
"monochromatic"
as our theme!
I have to admit, there are two kinds of cards I am not good at
one is "guy" cards and the other is "monochromatic".
Don't ask me why, but I think it is my "straight line" thinking..lol!
So did I struggle with this card?
You betcha!
I actually stamped way in advance, added the ribbon and then
let it sit for about a week and a half,
trying to decide if I liked it so far..LOL
Well, it was getting down to the wire so to speak, so I persevered on,
ending with what you see here!
The card base is SU Bermuda Bay.
I have a ton of color card stocks
and I am giving them my best effort to use them!
The background stamp is a Hero Arts.
The ribbon is SU and the flowers are from Michaels.
The butterfly is a very old Stampabilities, it says 1999 on it!!
So, that is how this card came to be!
Now head on over and see the beautiful creations at
"The Sisterhood" that my "sistahs" have to inspire you!

OH SO PRETTY! LOVE the color and design ... simple yet awesome! Really caught my eye! Great job Diane!!
Love the colors you used; gorgeous card!
Nice job on this gorgeous monochromatic card! I'd say you aced it. I love the Bermuda Bay. I mean, if you have to go monochromatic, why not go with a really pretty color? I've seen that HA stamp only once before on a blog and I think it is the most beautiful thing.
Well I love your card ... You may struggle with monochrome but looking at this you would never know ... It's Perfect! Beautiful stamping and colours!
So beautiful, the flourishes make for a soft background for the stunning ribbons and flowers. Thanks for joining ATSM
Super striking and elegant

Thanks for sharing and playing along at ATSM challenge
So pretty - love the color you chose! Thanks for joining ATSM this week!
I do like the monochromatic shades of teal - so beautiful. The pretty vine background and lovely butterfly are so pretty. Thanks so much for playing along with ASM this week.
