What a lovely, simple sketch for us to-day. I didn't have to strain my brain too much because it was all there! LOL The image is from Class Act and I used 'black and white' technique using only a black coloured pencil and a white coloured pencil and OMS. The flourish is from a Marianne Designs frame. Good old Mikes supplied the greeting from the $1.50 bin..yippee....

Oh Sue this is stunning. I love the look of black and white....so classy. Your pencil work reminds me of a charcoal drawing....Beautifully done as usual I never tire of your beautiful creations. tfs

Elegant with staples. Wow! Would you believe I thought of staples too, but didn't think I could pull it off. You did a marvelous job and your coloring on the image is super.
