Creative Card Crew Monocromatic

For my Creative Card Crew card I used this adorable Paper Pretties dog! Isn't he sooooo cute! My cardstocks are by bazzill and my minds eye. I have a hard time doing monocromatic cards because I really LOVE color. My dog image was colored and shaded using Prisma colored pencils.

 We are sponsored by the fabulous Paper Pretties for this challenge.  They have such sweet images and some are quite funny. How can you not laugh with an image called Holy Mackerel!

One lucky crafter will win 6 images of their choice from Paper Pretties.

Why not enter our challenge!  I would love to see your creations!
