Black and white sketch

Hi all! This card was made for this past weekend's sketch challenge, #3 for Card Patterns! I really wanted to make something unique and out of my comfort zone. Athough, in making this card, I don't know if I omitte anything from the original sketch or not! Hope I qualify! Haha!
If not, no big deal! I had fun, and that's the whole point!

The paper is from Glittered All Dressed Up stack by DCWV. The flowers are prima and Sabrina from Making Memories. I don't remember where I picked up rhinestone brads. I think they are Making Memories too. I used my Martha Stewart punch for the scalloped edge at the bottom. And I used both black polka dot ribbon and SU! silver/gray taffeta ribbon. I stenciled the swirls and cut them out and adhered to add a little detail. Many Thanks is from All Year Cheer from SU!

Thanks for stopping by!
Happy Stamping!!!
