Thank You in Taupe

I hope you all enjoyed a lovely Valentine's Day.  We had a nice quiet celebration.  Today's card is a submission for the Tic-Tac-Toe Challenge.  I chose the bottom row of Stitching, Flowers and Sketch.  I love the combination of taupe and black, toss in a little white and I'm in heaven.  I tried to use a little restraint and not add too many elements but I couldn't help but add some marker "stitches" to edge the diagonal band of flowers in the background.  I liked the extra touch of stitches beyond the die cut stitched rectangles of the taupe and white panels.  I also added a light stamping of floral images behind the sentiments.  I did forgo the sequins I was tempted to add :)




Happy Stamping,
Dana
