Ol' Blue Eyes

The theme this week over at Less Is More is the colour of your eyes .... and mine are blue (see profile pic!). So after I'd caught up with various DT work this afternoon I made time to make a quick monochrome card ... and here it is.


Recipe:
Main image: Inkadinkado "Tin Can Mail" stamped with fluid chalk ink, and distressed using TH "faded jeans" and "tumbled glass" distress inks;
Sentiment: Penny Black transparent set "Salutations".

Challenges:
Less Is More #35 - The Colour Of Your Eyes
Dream Valley #17 - Monochrome
Crafty Creations #137 - Clean & Simple
Truly Scrumptious #66 - Clean & Simple
Simon Says - Anything Goes
 (3rd entry .... trying to help SS get to 1000 entries this week!!)

That's all for now ... enjoy the rest of the weekend!
