Monochrome Art Deco Charm.

Morning - Today is the start of a new challenge at I Love Promarkers. The theme is Monochrome and we are sponsored by The Paper Shelter.  
I have used this image called Art Deco Charm as I thought it would work well with minimal colour of pale pinks. 

The background paper is from Carta Bella Hello Again collection. I use gold washi tape from Hobbycraft around the edges. I used a My Favourite things die to cut the gold frame and used the same card to mount the the greeting which is a sticker from Pebbles. I used gold pen to add some details on the image and glued a gold trimmed feather in place. 

I used very few promarkers - 

Skin - Usual 

Sand Dune, Pink Mittens, Baby Pink & Cocktail pink. 

I hope you like this card and I would love to see your creations in the challenge.
