There is  something very soothing about a monochromatic card.  This monochromatic card uses various shades of brown and it really portrays an earthy natural tone.

There are a lot of layers stamped on this card that you may have missed, so let me point them out to you.  First of all the splotch of Early Espresso was water colored onto the Water Color Paper with an Aqua Painter.  Next the ferns from Butterfly Basics was stamped once in Early Espresso and again in Tip Top Taupe.  The white fern was stamped in VersaMark and Heat Embossed with White Embossing Powder.  Next the post mark image was stamped in early espresso and then Early Espresso ink was splattered on the card stock with a flick of the Aqua Painter.  The Tip Top Taupe butterfly was die cut using the Butterfly Thinlits and finished off with some Linen Thread and Seam Binding Ribbon.Seam Binding Ribbon.
