Monochrome and Timeless

Hi Crafty Friends!

Back with another card today, simply because I want to play along at a couple of challenges.

This is a card for these topsy-turvy times we live in. Have a look ...

Recently I was scrolling through STAMPlorations Typographia stamps when this one, called Be Strong, really hit a nerve. This is for times when one just feels as if there is one thing after another without getting a breather and time to recharge. The last few years have definitely been somewhat like this an it's still ongoing.

Well, anyway, I finally turned it into a card being inspired by the Monochromatic Theme for the soon ending challenge over at Allsorts.

I used my favourite in, Elegant Eggplant by Stampin'Up!, to lightly stencil the trees before roughly inking and stamping the florals. The sentiment was fully inked. These simple variations in intensity add layers and depth.

I am entering my card at:

Allsorts Challenge 849 - Monochromatic or Anything Goes

Word Power May 2026 Challenge - Anything Goes with sentiment as focus

Just Us Girls Challenge 823 - Word Week 'Flowers'

That's it from me for today. Back tomorrow with another make...
