Twisted Thursday Challenge S2GSC12

Time for another Shirleys 2 girls Sketch Challenge (see sketch below). This weeks twist is to use monochromatic colors. If you've never made a monochromatic card I'd start with picking your comfort color and going with that. The contest ends on Sunday, May 31st at midnight. You can find all the deets here as well as Mr. Linky so lets see what you've got. For my card I used the digital image called On the Road DG14. The shape of the image was perfect for the sketch. I knew I wanted to start with pink but didn't have any coordinating pink paper so I printed out some digital paper from Digichick and went with that. The set is called What goes around by Aheimann. I'm not sure if its available anymore I downloaded it more than a year ago. I kept pretty true to the sketch and went on the simpler side. I still think it needs more I just couldn't find what I was looking for. To give the catepillar a little character I printed it out on matching designer paper and used dimensionals to help him become the focal point of the card. Now its your turn.



Stamps: Shirleys 2 Girls - On the road DG14
Paper: Pretty in Pink, White, Digichicks -What goes around
Accessories: 5/8 inch Rose Ribbon, Misc. Ribbon by the Yard, Paper Piercer, Dimensionals
