Less is More #18

The Brief - Monochrome

Guess who got some new stamps this week!  So I had to use them.  I have been inspired by fellow blogger Cyndie at Artful Haven, who does the most amazing art work, not just the most wonderful cards.  Anyway the first post I saw of hers used this stamp set, and knew I had to have it.



I am no quilter, so have no idea how to put the panels of colour together,  again I deferred to Cyndie's colouring scheme.  I really wanted to try shades of grey, so the Copics got a run again.  It was a lovely relaxing thing to do this afternoon as we have had quite a hectic weekend with decorating a room and doing a general clean out.  Oh and of course school projects.

What you need
Cardstock - PTI white; SU ? Going Grey
Stamps - PTI Quilter's Sampler and Additions
Copics - W1,3,5,9
Ink - Memento Tuxedo Black

  12. Another stunning card! And using stamps to quilt is certainly easier than quilting with fabric in my experience!

  13. Oh my gosh, I'm so incredibly flattered to be a source of inspiration! Especially to someone who inspires me so much! This card for instance--I never would have thought of doing the quilt blocks in shades of gray, but it looks fantastic! I love how you have arranged them on the card as well.
