CaSS - Anything Goes with optional mono

We're a quarter of the way through 2019 and for the first time this year (at the time of writing) we've had our first sunny and fairly warm day.  Long may it last!

However, at CaSS we're all about Christmas preparations and with a new challenge starting today I thought I'd share my DT make.  The theme this month is still Anything Goes but with the optional theme of Monochrome.  I went for black with gold embossing:



I used a Wplus9 floral stamp for my main image and found a sentiment which fits perfectly in a Pretty Pink Posh stamp set (the one with the bird and the postbox).  I resisted the temptation to add sequins or other bling so the card was actually quite quick to make -  if you ignore the time spent obsessively flicking a tiny paintbrush on those pesky stray bits of embossing powder that just seem to get everywhere!

I hope you'll be able to play along with us at Christmas at Sweet Stampin' this month.  You'll get the challenge details here, plus a look at the fabby inspiration projects my teamies have made.

Hugs
