The new Sentimental Sundays challenge is MONOCHROME (with a sentiment)! This one was a bit of a challenge for me. I generally try to avoid monochrome projects because they intimidate me. But I gave this one a try and am pretty happy with the results.
I’m going to keep this post short since I am late getting it up. Drop by the Sentimental Sundays blog to see the other fabulous MONOCHROME (with a sentiment) creations from the rest of the DT and download your free sentiment set from Ann Vento of Raindrop Echo Designs. I can’t wait to see your MONOCHROME project.
Have a great day!

This is stunning Cheryl, the liquid pearls are the perfect finishing touch - I wish I could get them to look as good when I use them.

I've always loved this sentiment - gorgeous pearls and lace. Lovin' that color!
This is stunning Cheryl. Love the soft green tones. The pearls, vintage lace and seambinding all are perfect for this look. Love it!
Monochrome intimidates me too, but I think you've done a truly lovely job. Those shades of green are so pretty and the muted color of the lace is just the perfect little accent. :-)
Oh this is truly outstanding, Cheryl - such a striking card, beautiful in every way! Love the "almost vintage" feel your card has - and the pearls are delightful!
Beautiful card Cheryl, so elegant & what a lovely sentiment :)
Have a great week!

OMG, this is totally stunning!! Love the sentiment, colours and lace ♥
Thanks for joining the "Just sayin" challenge at Stamptacular Sunday this week. Hope to see you again :)

Gorgeous, Cheryl! You did a fabulous job with the monotone challenge. This is so elegant and so detailed. Lovely sentiment, too. I love all the stitching and the seam binding, and adore the liquid pearls on the scalloped die cut. :)
This is gorgeous Cheryl, you nailed monochromatic! Thanks for joining us at Crafty Ann's this time and I hope we see you again soon. Carol DT x
Great card, love the monochromatic colors and those pearls are beautiful. Love the stitching around the edges adds perfect texture.
So elegant! I love the soft color and the pearls, ribbon and lace are so feminine! Beautiful card :)
This is so pretty, and I had to look twice to see that you used LIQUID pearls as opposed to actual pearl bling. How do you get them rounded out? I always seem to end up with "peaks" on my liquid pearls.
Wow Cheryl, this is so gorgeous. I'm also intimidated by monochrome but you hit this one out of the park! Love the lace, pearls and wrinkly ribbon.
What a stunner! You had me at the pearls! So classy and ultra gorgeous. Wow!
So elegant, I love the pearl frame around the sentiment! Thanks for joining in with us at Anything Goes K x
Cheryl... this is so beautiful! I love the muted colors and that lace is gorgeous! I'm so glad that you joined us at Shelly's Images Anything Goes Challenge and I hope we see more of your creations in the future!
