Really Simple Monochrome!

I love black & white on cards and when I read this fantastic tip left on Top Tip Tuesday last week I just knew I had to have a go!

Although Monochrome doesn't mean 'black & white' I thought it best for this technique. I picked this tip up from Princess Kitten and it can be used with any Digi image and is very effective - and so simple! Thanks so much Kitten, I said I'd give it a go!




I used the fab image called  Ronnie Relaxing from PollyCraft - isn't he sweet?





I'd like to enter this card into the following challenges.....

Cute Card Thursday - Monochrome

CES Challenges - No DP!
