This is such a great color combo! And maybe the first time I've used so much gray. I had to really hunt around to find some and finally found a pkg of monochromatic Bazzill c/s that I'd bought a while back. Whew, saved!
This is a pretty simple card. The main image is stamped w/ coal ink onto a bg that I sponged with various yellow dye and yellow and alabaster chalk inks. I started w/ the lightest and worked down to an ochre at the bottom.
All the pieces were edged w/ a black marker and I added some dots on top of the border. I added some white highlights to the image using a white chalk writer pen (Zig) and a white gel pen. TFL

i just had to come back to this card again today: It's so impressive. It's a work of art...so much more than just a card. Oh, to be this creative !!!! It's truly outstanding. You did an incredible job.
