Thoughts of You


Meet today's card.
Every time I see a black and white card, I think it looks so dramatic and beautiful and there is something about a monochromatic card that gets my attention.
I did have to throw in a tiny bit of blue too of course.
So here's what I did to create my card.
I began by placing the SU flower from the Blooming with Kindness set into my Misti and stamped it onto a piece of white cardstock with black ink.  I clear embossed it to help it pop.  
Next, using a black Copic marker, I filled in the background, carefully colouring around the flower petals.  The black background brought such attention to the beautiful details in that flower.
When it was all coloured in, I used the die from Avery Elle to die cut the panel.  The stitching added such a great element and design.  I also added some white acrylic paint splatter to add further interest.
I mounted that onto a piece of white then onto the blue.
I stamped the sentiment then pop dotted my piece over that.


Hope you are having a great weekend and thanks again for taking time to come and visit!
