Critter Sketch Challenge - Monochrome

Over at the Critter Sketch Challenge Blog our current challenge is to create something monochrome (using different shades of one colour).  I'm still fighting a cold and felt horrible for the past little while so I made sure I kept my card nice and simple with very little colouring.  I was even able to use up some scraps from my scrap bin and made this small card that will be able to hold a gift card:

I used different shades of blue on my card and even coloured my pearls with copics to match & dyed my canvas ribbon with Tim Holtz Distress ink.  Quick and simple and I love all the blue!  I hope you will play along with us this week in our monochrome challenge!  Our sponsor for the month of November is Digital Delights by Louby Loo and you have a chance to win 5 digital images if you play along.
