Dynamic Duos has a monochromatic color scheme this week. I decided to combine that challenge with the current Sketch For You To Try layout. I used the rock-n-roll technique to ink up the tree image. I layered a grosgrain ribbon over a satin ribbon for the vertical strip in the sketch. I added a gold star-shaped brad to the top of the tree. Although it doesn’t show off well in the photo, in real life it adds a nice little touch of shine to the card.
All supplies except the star mini brad are from Stampin’ Up.
Stamps: Season of Joy, All-Year Cheer I
Cardstock: Certainly Celery, Always Artichoke, Confetti Cream, Certainly Celery Prints designer series paper
Ink: Always Artichoke, Certainly Celery
Other: Certainly Celery satin ribbon, Always Artichoke grosgrain ribbon; star mini brad (The Paper Studio)

Such a pretty card for the Dynamic Duo’s challenge! I really like the way you kept true to the challenge even when inking your tree.
Cheers, Karen
I’m not familiar with the rock-n-roll technique. Can you explain it?
