ATSM Photo Challenge!

I always love these photo challenges that Kylie puts together for us at ATSM and this one is particularly fun!
I love the black and white, the woodgrain, and the big white flower. I, as usual, was very literal with my card. lol
This card was so fast and easy to put together. I used some retired supplies, which I almost NEVER do, but they really fit for this challenge so I just had to. :) I wanted my pearl to match my Basic Gray cardstock and ink, so I colored it with my Blendabilities.  I'm not so great at coloring images YET (mostly because I haven't had time to practice! Boo!), but I can handle coloring embellishments! :)

Thanks for stopping by to see my card. Make sure to stop by the ATSM blog to see the rest of the design team's amazing work!

    Your card is stunning! I LOVE that you used your new markers to colour your pearl. That is something I haven't done before and it is such a perfect way to co-ordinate everything! You are so clever! xx

    This is such a great interpretation of the inspiration photo. Soft blousey flower against the hard wooden floor. :)

    Love your pretty layered flower, Shana! It looks so lovely against the woodgrain background, and I love your monochromatic color palette! Stunning card!

    Back to work this week has disrupted my blogging time; I think blog-visiting and commenting should be part of my job description! Shana, your card here, with its stunning flower and beautiful wood grain background has me in awe! An amazing take on the inspiration photo!
