This is for today's LIMITED SUPPLY CHALLENGE - Chinese Take Out. We were to make a masculine card by picking 1 item from the 3 menus given. I picked Trains from Menu #1, Neutrals from Menu #2, and Embossing Folders from Menu #3 for this card. I used Wednesday's SKETCH CHALLENGE for my layout. I just had to have this set and I think this is the very 1st time I put ink to it :( I love this train image. I used a sheet of glittered dp from a Glitter Matt Pack I picked up at Michaels a while back. My base is basic gray and I embossing going gray with the Cuttlebugs Swiss Dot folder to match the dots on the dp. I stamped the image in black on going gray then applied some stickles to the steam. I stamped the sentiment on the inside, just no room on the outside for it. I love how this turned out, what do you think? Let me know.

Great card! I love monochromatic in general, and it's always so striking in shades of black/gray/white. The glittery touches really add a spark(le) to this wonderful card...

I loved the Chinese Take Out challenge and adore how you've combined it with the Sketch Challenge. Wonderful use of that image. Very striking!
