Monochromatic - Challenge Sweet Stamps

Good Morning from a cold and windy UK we even snow at the weekend! Over on Sweet Stamps we start a new theme and this week we would like to see your Monochromatic cards.  
If you fancy winning a $20 spending spree then head on over to the Sweet Stamps blog and enter the challenge and I could be you winning the $20 to spend in the Sweet Stamps online store.  And remember that if you use a Sweet Stamps image your name gets entered into the prize draw twice! 

Sweet stamps sell an impressive range of crafting goodies, from Cheery Lynn Dies, Magnolia Stamps, Creative Inspirations Paints, Copics , Parchment Craft, Exclusive to Sweet Stamps Shades Ink pads and lots lots more.. 

I decided to go for Orange and White as my colours for a change instead of Black and White.  I'm really pleased with the way it turned out. 

I used copics as my colouring medium YR000, YR00 YR01 and YR02 love the way that the dress has turned out as I tried to get a see through look. 

Love this sentiment as it can be used for a number of different occasions.
