For Casual Friday - pastel and black

Hello lovely bloggers,

Aleeza is much better - many thanks for all your kind wishes.

Here is a card I made for Casual Friday - pastel and black. Yes, I stamped directly on to paper - I have come a long way!!!

I am also going to submit this for Make it Monday - anything goes (always)


The stamp is from Penny Black and the I have embossed the black strip of paper -  not really visible in the picture. 
The cow print  is actually a fancy ribbon from my stash - I loved it the minute I saw it. 
I punched the flourishes with my Ek Success border punch and the two waste bits was stuck on the top. 
The pink ribbon is also from my stash and the crystal is from Prima.

I quite liked this cute card...

Would love to know what you think?

Hugs,

Monica

So adorable, Monica! I didn't know there is such image. I was born on the year of the Ox so I love this card and flourish is my favorite.

That cow is so so cute and I think the pink and black color combo is perfect for the card and image :)
