It's not my team up for the new challenge at Tic Tac Toe but I just couldn't resist playing along with the fabulous board created by Jeanie for Challenge #299. The monochromatic option got the creative juices flowing for me!
It was a great opportunity to feature the Foliage Flair stamps and stencils by Pinkfresh Studios. I stamped the image in black ink, and used Distress Oxide Inks with the stencil to apply shades of blue, cobalt and teal to the design. The flowing lines of the foliage and blooms pair beautifully with the simple color combo.
I went with the middle vertical row of Monochromatic, Gems and Coordinated Envelope. I love that I had the lovely blue gems from Altenew (Gem Sparkles - Deep Sea Sapphire.) They really sparkle!
Be yourself

I love your study in blues, Cindy! I am a fan of this combo and that flowy image was a perfect choice! The pretty bling and narrow matting finish it beautifully. Thank you for inspiring everyone to use their NBUS! Hugs, Darnell
You amaze me! No matter the challenge you inspire me! I love this monochromatic card in shades of blue! Thanks so much for sharing your talent and playing along with Team O this week!!!
That image is just perfect for the colours you've used. This is gorgeous Cindy!! xx
What a beautiful piece! Love how you used those blues and achieved such variation and shading. Wonderful flow to this, and the envelope flap tells the recipient that something beautiful is inside!
