Monochromatic Swiss Pixie

I made this card for this weeks sketch challenge at Paper Sundaes.

I just love the love of monochromatic cards. I chose peach as my main color because I had a sheet of this gorgeous whitewash cardstock that I've been dying to try. I got it from PaperWorks and I love the way this card turned out, so I have since ordered some in every color! I ran it through my Big Shot with a cuttlebug folder and sanded the embossed areas to have the peach core come through the white. The image I used is Swiss Pixies Nora Butterfly.

So sweet jenny! The soft colours and coordination of them are great, and you did a wonderful job colouring her.

That orange is really pretty...I'm not even an orange person...maybe because it's on the peachy side.
