Divas by Design Monochromatic DT card

Late again!!!!! I have had such a crazy week just when everything was supposed to be going back to normal!
This week was my first week to myself after 6 wks of either hubby, kiddies or mum and instead this wk became me running around after our pup so she doesn't pee in every room of the house lol! Running around after Caleb being ill and also running around after hackers e mailing you all and holding me at gunpoint (metaphorically of course!)
Phew, well it is the end of the week and I'm afraid all this caused me to fall off the wagon so to speak, the crafty wagon that is! I spent!!!!! (naughty)
I have been so good eating into my mountain of paper and then what happened?!!!
Well over at Divas by Design this wk we are sponsored by the wonderful Craftie Charlie who have given us the most amazing prize (one of the new limited edition MME sew bag kits and other goodies) and when I linked up the shop to the challenge blog I ended up browsing and bought more paper!!!!!!
Ah well it was good whilst it lasted and I didn't spend much, I shall be good from now on, oops just remembered I bought some Maggies off of Caz on FB, oh well they are 2nd hand and cheap!!!
I think I should just hang my head in disgrace and show you my card for the Mono challenge at Divas (a day late)
I had considered doing a green card, then a pink, then a blue and then I saw one of my teamies Sarah had made a B&W card and I though oooo haven't done one of those in a while and I do love how they turn out!
I have used stunning black market paper society papers available from Craftie Charlie along with cheesecloth and ribbon from stash, pearl flourish from sarah's, butterfly from little snippets, flowers and lace from WOC and metal from from Tim Holtz with an SU sentiment inside.
My wonderful image is from Mo Manning and I have coloured this cutie with prisma pencils in a multitude of greys. I have added some glamour dust to his wings but as per the norm my photo doesn't really show the sparkle!
I would like to enter this into..
Mos challenge anything goes, Lexis creations lace and flowers, Creatalicious butterflies and flowers, Kaboodle doodles add dimension, craft your passion lots of texture, paper playtime anything goes, cutie pie mono and Lollipop crafts anything goes.
Thanks so much for coming by my blog again today.
I hope you will join us over at Divas for the challenge!
Big hugs

Aaah, but Rebekah, mine isn't half as impressive as yours! Your's is just gorgeous - you really do make the most wonderful cards and I love all your embellies.

Wonderful image as well, I saw those over at Mo's and was soooooo tempted but I'm trying soooooo hard to be good (the craft fairs on at the end of this month).

Hope Caleb isn't too poorly. Emily went back to school today, didn't see any reason to keep her off with just a UTI. The antibotics they've given her smell rotten and so she's getting lots of choccie for being a good girl and taking her medicine! Wonder what will happen when the antib's run out!!!!!!!
