SOTC Challenge~~May 2012

Hello Friends,

it is time to show you another card made for the 'Sisterhood of the Travelling Cards' . Such group is the brainchild of Kadie (kmensley on SCS).

Here are all deets about this dedicated group of stampers: http://www.splitcoaststampers.com/forums/cards-f107/closed-sisterhood-traveling-cards-t7-t550294.html

The wonderful hostess for the month of May, was April (Aprilo on SCS)

and she challenged us with the following request:

"...This month's theme is Monochromatic May! Your card can be for any occasion, but it should be all one color family! I tend to have a problem making cards like this, so I would love some inspiration from my Sistahs!..."

Well, I totally {{{{{heart}}}}this challenge!! woot woott...

I knew exactly what stamp set I was going to finally ink...I knew the tecnique

I wanted to apply too....yet I was undecide on the color family...and then it hit me...

I wanted the card to have a 'soft feeling' to it therefore I decided to stick to neutral tones and hues and did not add any sentiments on purpose, to allow the recipients to include one of their choices depending on the occasion...

I really like the soft result obtained by combining a few tecniques together.
