A Monochrome Challenge at TOMIC!

Today I have a card to share for TOMIC! Our challenge is Monochrome. I decided to use browns. This was the first card I made since returning from my visit with Angie (thank you again for such a wonderful time). Her work is truly amazing, I just loved seeing all her cards in person. She really inspired me to pull out my Distress Inks when I came home. It's been about a year since I've painted with them. Don't you just love when you haven't used something, then when you pull it out it's brand new all over again! :)
Well I hope you can join us at TOMIC this week!

    Hi Mindy!

    When I look at this card, a feeling of calm just warms me. It's just beautiful. You do such a beautiful job with the di's and should definitely use them more often.

    Wish you were still here. I had a great time too :-)
