Use Sepia Tones at Crafty Ribbons

This week over at Crafty Ribbons our challenge is to use Sepia Tones. I have to say I had a mini meltdown until lovely Lucy told me to just use brown!! Hahaha. Bless her - total meltdown averted!

I went with theses LOTV papers with one of my favourite LOTV images :-)
I've used some of the lush new Christmas Doodle ribbon (Merry Kiss-mas) which I think finishes the card off nicely.
I hope that you get a chance to join us - it's not as scary a challenge as it first appears ;-)

Thank you for all your well wishes for my Gran. They made 'em tough in the old days :-) We're taking a day at a time but she is looking sooo much better. We're trying to sort out various bits of care but it's a total nightmare and how people cope on their own is a mystery. The way the government treats the old and vulnerable is absolutely shameful and I've been utterly shocked by the whole episode. Anyhoo, I shall get off my soap box and see you tomorrow. Thanks for stopping by xxx

  6. Gorgeous card! It's such a warm winter card. You did a great job with the sepia tones. Lucy was right sepia is just a fancy word for browns.

  9. Very pretty and love the Sepia tones. I was wondering if you used Copics? And if so what ones you used. Your snowman makes the Kraft (tone) paper perfectly.

  10. Thanks so much for sharing this information that is very sweet of you to do. I will have to give it a try but doubt I'll come close to yours. It is just perfectly matched to the Kraft paper. XX
