DCM - Black & Only One Other Colour

This has to be the hardest challenge for me as I have limited supplies of mono colours. I almost gave up & I think this is just PANTS, but seriously it is all I can come up. My patience has been tested today!!! Black & red. The photo is appaling which doesn't help, but it is raining yet again, here in Scunthorpe, cruddy daylight!!!! Black cardstock for card. Red paper from MM, greeting handmade on computer using a font & two dingbats. Button papermania new red mini pack, thread dmc embroidery. Hearts cut with a folkart heart punch.

Paula, I think you've done fabulous work with this card, I love the black and red!
It's rainy and cold here in Tasmania (Australia) too - so I know all about those cruddy dark days.

Lovely Paula, you are so busy with the card making business, I can totally learn from that you know. I just get nothing done at the moment.
I love you bookworm page, I too love books. Hubby can't understand why though, he doesn't like reading. I always read, even if it is just a newspaper or a magazine. I desperately need some new books for the holidays :):)

This is SO NOT PANTS!

You are way too hard on yourself Girl - the black and red combo looks fab and I like the way it looks like a little bag/pocket - makes me want to open to see what's inside!
