Monochromatic cards

I'm back in a mono-mood this week:

Photobucket

# Some Odd Girl ~ Stash challenge ~ no patterned paper
I used a Some Odd Girl image called "Gorky" that I won at Robin's blog, Bazzill cardstock, watercolour pencils and some twine.
# Quixotic Paperie ~ Challenge #23 ~ 'how distressing'
# Kaboodle ~ Challenge #29 ~ embossing
I embossed the background cardstock with Cuttlebug 'Friend' embossing folder
# Polka Doodles ~ Week 16 ~ monochromatic


And another pink, girly card:



# Simon Says ~ Buttons, bows and bling
# Simon Says (on Paper Craft Planet) ~ Challenge #5 ~ Bling, bling, bling
# Nutshells ~ Challenge #14 ~ Spring
# Polka Doodles ~ Week 16 ~ monochromatic

I used: Bazzill cardstock, Creative Imaginations paper, Kaisercraft rhinestones, Autumn Leaves stamp
