Only one colour...

Morning lovelies...

I am running a bit behind today and that would be on a account of going out partying last night!

My son's girlfriend (have I said she is gorgeous) is 21 today and the celebrations started last night!

Anyways, it's time for another Not So Random Challenge at Squirrel's World.
The challenge this time is to use just one colour (aside from skin, hair and fur) - you get the idea! 


For my card I have coloured a gorgeous Whimsy StampsSnowflake Dancer
I have used grey tones.  (To let you into secret, (sssshhhhh)! I was a bit daunted by this challenge but I actually really enjoyed the one colour bit in the end)!

...here we have her, such a gorgeous image this one...

You never would have guessed you were daunted by the challenge, as this is simply stunning and nice to see grey being used too.

Gosh, this is precious! The monochrome scheme is really perfect as you see and appreciate all the lovely details without the distraction of color. The circular format is so refreshing and suits this stamp perfectly (as if she's spinning in space). Love the glimmer bits in all the right places--truly a magical creation!

Just stunning! A gorgeous monochromatic card and such a sweet image too. Colouring an image in tones of one colour has always frightened me so I've avoided doing it, perhaps I'll give it a go now.

Oh my Sue this is just beautiful. I love the grey tones you have used and the design is stunning. I am recovering from partying too so a little delicate. Hope you've enjoyed the weekend (and the golf of course). Cathy x

This is just the most beautiful creation and I know because I spent a long time admiring it when I was at yours! I absolutely adore the circular frame design with the gorgeously delicate vellum snowflakes and your monochrome colouring is stunning :-)
I'm still smiling from our utterly fabbie day out yesterday :-D
Big hugs, Kat xx
