It's time for a new theme at Allsorts challenge. Kath is hosting and would like to see creations with Black and White plus one other color only. Hope you can join us for a chance to win a prize by Stamp Addicts!
Die Cuttin' Divas Tic Tac Toe (I used middle row of twine, polka dots and scallops - scallops on my card are in form of scallop seashells) // Moving along with the Times - Monochrome // Crafty Sentiment Designs - Summer //

I'm sure some of you longtime stampers will recognize this old stamp set from Stampin Up - Balmy Breezes. This set was released a long time ago (maybe 2005?), naturally long retired but it can be found on ebay.

I created an inky background with Distress Inks on a craft mat spritzed with water. Unfortunately I didn't keep track of the colors I used. Then stamped the images which are all from the Balmy Breezes set onto the dried inked background. I used Versafine Clair Nocturne ink for stamping. The sentiment is a foil sticker from Tim Holtz's Quotations sticker sheet set. Distressed the edges, layered onto black card stock, then the white card base. Strips of pattern papers (retired from Stampin Up) were added to the card base behind the image panel. A quick and simple card to make. I finished it off by adding an olive green button and some black and white twine.

Silly me, I forgot to use a die cut, so deleted my entry at Die cutting divas...
Great choice of colour Ellie and love the images, they make a really lovely scene. Thank you for your lovely creation.
Sorry about your weather but it has not been to good here this week.

What a great card with this stamp set! I use to have it, I will have to check and see if I still do cause I'd love to case this card.
I still have this wonderful stamp set in my collection. I guess that pretty much gives you a clue to how old a stamper I am, but oh, how I love seeing my old favorites brought back to life. Classical designs are awesome not matter when you pull them out to use.
Super card Ellie, perfect for our challenge at MAWTT, xxxx
It's a lovely colour palette Ellie, that shade of green works well behind the palm tree.
