Crafty Catz DT Black plus one

Good morning it is my turn to host the challenge at Crafty Catz and i have picked a colour challenge for you all to follow. Just the one colour to add plus a compulsory colour of Black.
So Black plus one colour you are allowed to use skin and hair colour and you can use white as your colour or not. I though with halloween that the black would fit but then again alot of classic black and white or use a splash of colour. It is up to you.
Our sponsor for this challenge is The Stamping Boutique 
So onto my card I made this for a neighbour as an order she tends to like black and white cards,
I have made a sentiment card using a Inkydoodle stamp which I heat embossed and added some glitter on some of the letters. Used a cuttlebug Birds and swirls folder and a creative expressions lattice folder. The strip accross the middle is a tonic punch and a nice big satin bow to finish.
Well I hope you like my card and can come and join us again this week.
Have a great weekend yeepee it is weekend i am hoping for a lie in this weekend i really need it.

TEXTURE
So you could have some embossing on your creation, some fabric, flowers, ribbons anything really that adds a bit of texture to your creations.
We are lucky to be sponsored by Magnolialicious this time
Now you dont have to us a magnolia stamp or papers but we would love it if you could.
 close up of the stamp coloured with my promarkers

 I dont tend to use many Magnolia stamps these days so had a dig round and found a old Christmas one from way back. So I looked at my papers and couldnt find what i wanted so decided that I would use my backing as my main texture. I used a cutlebug embossing folder then used my ink duster and memento Blue ink to shade the paper. I had stamped the Lamp post which is also a Magnolia from the same collection. Added glitter another texture and some gold liquid pears on the lamp. Layered it on some midnight blue glitter card and added some ribbon a sentiment from papermania and some foam glittered shapes.
So now it is your turn hope that you will come and play along again this week. Need some more inspiration then head over to the challenge blog there lots of different styles.
Thanks for popping by i will be back very shortly
