I made another card for CAS-ual Friday's challenge 36 this week, which is to use only black and white on your card...no other color allowed. I am also going to enter this card as a second card, in Less is More's challenge 51, Cut it Out, which this week is to make a card with an aperture(window, hole...I didn't know what that word was until recently...yes, there...I admit it:)!!). I opted to use a pretty Hero Arts background stamp to make my card, and this is what I came up with:
I stamped (after using anti static bag) on my black paper with versamark...then white embossed. Die cut the window with Papertrey Ink Mat die. I put the black/white embossed piece on the card and stamped the sentiment, BEFORE popping up this panel. The black paper was not top grade, heavy paper, so I cut a piece of chipboard and mounted it to give it real stability and "pop" as well...again...AFTER the sentiment(just a tip). And here's a slightly angled view:
The stamps are Hero Arts...the background Flower Dot Pattern, the sentiment Truly Appreciated.
Simply done. Thanks for visiting me today!! Hugs!! Lisa
Gorgeous! That background stamp is perfect for this card and looks fabulous in white. :)
