favorite color - monochromatic challenge!

I skipped to the favorite color - monochromatic challenge for the paper variety's blogaverary celebration, because I thought this would be so much fun!  I love the color black so I made this card for my parents wedding anniverary...

Paper : all from quick quotes
acetate: quick quotes
I handmade the flower and the paper bow
adhesive: scotch ATG and their quick dry adhesive

I love using only paper in various ways!  Thanks for looking, and Happy Blogaverary Paper Variety!
Happy Crafting!

Queen of My Craftroom DT Remembering September 11th

This week at Queen of My Craftroom's we will be remembering September 11th, those who lost their lives and those whose lives were forever changed by that terrible day 10 years ago.  Thank you to all of those who helped in some way or form on that very tragic day.  I am sure everyone can still remember exactly what they were doing on that day and I know I surely will never forget where I was and how I felt and still feel.  This is just a very tiny symbol of remembrance for all of us...

To make this card I used:
Paper: Quick Quotes Just Jackson
Memories Black Ink Pad
Ribbon sheer white and thin cream is from my stash
Stamps: Martha Stewart Alphabet stamp set
I - Rock Tool
I - Rock gems
Star shaped brad

Thank you so very much for looking, please make sure you stop by the Queen's Craftroom to see what the other Design Team members have created for you.
Take care and God Bless America,
