No Red or Green



This week we have been asked not to use Red or Green.


I have chosen to take out my village stamp again and the Desert sand Memento Ink
and make a monochromatic card .
Although the card looks white it is a yellow cream and
the DP is yellow cream through almost brown.
Really rich autumn colours in fact.
I have matted it onto milk chocolate and then onto the cream
and just added a gold star.
I am sorry you wont get the benefit of the true colours.
Maybe it is just the simplicity but
I really like it and it is not very often I say that about a card.

Challenges:
52 CCT - Colours.
Make it Monday - Anything goes.
Brown sugar - Anything goes
Christmas stamping all year long - Simple Christmas
Crafts to challenge you - Christmas scene


Thanks for dropping in you are most welcome.

    Hello Margaret, I have that village stamp, it is one of the oldest stamps in my collection but I love it and will never part with it. The simplicity of your design paired with the monochrome look make for a wonderfully elegant and classy card - perfect! As always, so lovely to have you playing along with us at 52 {C}CT! Hope things are well with you health wise these days. Hope to see you next week! Ruth x

    Love your Christmas card with those non-traditional colours. Love the monochrome, soft feeling to your scene- very seasonal. Thanks for joining in at 52 CCT this week
