Black and White with Dilly Beans

Hello! It's Friday (hooray!), so I have a new Dilly Beans challenge to share with you. This week's theme is Black and White. We have a new rule, starting this week. You MUST use a Dilly Beans image to play along. Full details will be on the Dilly Beans challenge blog. Now...here' my card.

I was a little worried about this challenge, as I really do love to use color. But this was a lot of fun!!! I want to make more projects that are just black and white!

I used one of Megan's fabulous Big Eye Girls for this card. I used only black and 2 shades of gray (from Spectrum Noir) to color her in. Oh. And I used a white pen from Sakura  here and there too.

I used a Crafter's Workshop stencil and a sentiment from Inkadinkado. The rest was just scraps I had laying around. All in all, this card came together very quickly, which I was thrilled about. What do you think of the lack of color? How about playing along with us this week? Just visit the Dilly Beans challenge blog to play, and you will get to see lots more inspiration from the amazing DT. And, in honor of the new "Dilly Beans Only" rule, Megan has decided to have a BOGO sale on all digis Saturday and Sunday. Again, check out the blog for all of the deets.  Thanks for stopping by. Have an inspiring day!

Echo Park Blog Hop with Imagine

Greetings! This is my second post for the day. This one is not part of the 31 Days of Halloween, but rather a super-duper blog hop that the Artists in Residence for Imagine are doing with Echo Park . So if you're here for my Day 7 project, please check out the post HERE . But before you do that, scroll on to check out this one. There are prizes up for grabs, so be sure to check out the Imagine Blog as well as the Echo Park Blogs for details. I created my background by applying Dandelion and Tangelo Memento Ink to my brayer. Then I sprayed it with Ink Potion No. 9 to help the colors blend and to act as an extender to keep the inks wet longer. After I rolled the colors out on to watercolor paper and let it dry, I stamped the lovely doily-like image from Echo Park's Simply Sweet Stamp Set with Grape Jelly Memento. I also received the super pretty Heart Doily Designer Die  which I used with a true purple cardstock. But it needed something....and in rolls the super fabul...
