Happy Monday! It’s Monday Mishmash and we’re celebrating “Blue Monday” but not a sad, blue day. Instead, I have prepared a card using blue card stock! While looking at different card designs, I saw a monochromatic card prepared in a deep tan and embossed with a contrasting color. The monochromatic look was beautiful and I decided to use one of my favorite colors in the Brights Collection – Tempting Turquoise, to prepare a similar monochromatic look. The white embossing “pops” against the blue background and creates a bright, cheerful look. It was a quick, simple card that is classic in design. As an added touch, the white card liner was stamped with the Tempting Turquoise Classic Stampin’ ink pad.
