Hi there! Sharon's Stamp Simply challenge this week is to make a card using Black Ink Only! this means NO COLORING of any sort - no markers, no pencils, no chalks, no inks -- just black ink only. Now, if you can color with black ink only, that's A-OK!!! No other restrictions, anything else goes!!! Have fun with it!! Please visit her blog for all the details here.
Here's my take on the challenge.
Here's the inside. I omitted the bird.
Check out what the STamp Simply designers have for you this week they are on Fire!!
Guest Designer Heather
Supplies: Birds Galore, Sing To The Lord. Ink: Tuxedo Black. Cardstock: PTI White, Black. Other: Cuttlebug, Ribbon
