Monochromatic Birthday at Die Cut Divas.

 It's the 31st of the month, so time for a last share for this month's Die Cut Divas.  

Our sponsor is Cas-ual Fridays Stamps.                                                                                                             

I wasn't sure if I'd have a card to share today as I left it so late to get one done.  My plan was make a card yesterday - but as they say - the best laid plans of mice and men oft go astray.  I had a follow up visit with the doctor at the respiratory clinic.   She was a bit concerned that my cough hadn't improved over the weekend and as my leg was feeling a bit tender, though I might have a clot... seeing as I have had clots before.   So a ride in the ambulance to the local hospital where I had a chest x-ray and an ultra sound of my leg veins.  Luckily by the end of the day, results all came back clear....and I was able to head home around 6.00pm.  Today I decided to take another day of rest - and was able to take time to get my card done. 

As you can see I decided that a monochromatic black and white card.  I received a new Pinkfresh cover plate (Floral and DiamondTile) today so did some embossing with it for a very subtle background.  I stamped two sentiments from the Amazeballs stamp set and used a die from Gina K Master Layout 2 to cut it out and it's layer.  The main panel was cut with Master Layouts 1. The leaves are cut with Cas-ual Fridays Fri-dies Casual Vine.  I cut the vine in half to layer behind the sentiment panel.   I used a Kaisercraft Floral Pansy die set to cut the black flower and leaf.  Added some little black gems to finish.
