Another fortnight has come around and it's time for another Crafty Ann's Challenge Blog challenge. The topic this fortnight is "monochromatic". I decided to go out of my comfort zone and decided to go for shades of brown. I used Crafty Ann's bird on a blossom perch and printed the image onto some of Crafty Ann's papers, Abstract 2 Earth Tones and then used a mixture of browns from the Abstract 2 Autumn Tones and Earth Tones for the backing mounts. The bird I have decoupaged up three layers. The branch I coloured in with Promarkers and highlighted a few areas Promarkers. The card is finished off with some sticker strips, skelton leaves, card candy, ticket sentiment from Crafty Ann's, butterfly die-cut and some decorative ribbon trim.
This card fits the following challenges:
Lots to do - Butterflies and insects
Gingerloft Challenge - Anything goes
2 Sisters - Monochromatic
