Black amd White CAS


I never realized exactly how many shades of white there were! Serious! On this card, we have white cardstock, white ribbon, and white (with black) DP. I really think all three "whites" are different.........Weird! This is probably the very first truly all white and black card I've ever made. I get one almost completed and always end up adding some type of other color to it. On this one, it was all I could do not to put a different colored brad in the center of that little flower. Anyway, I like how the card turned out - with the exception of all the different shades of white. I think that shows up more in the photo though than it does in real life!

This was for the SCS CAS61 (Monday) - Just mainly a sentiment. I don't have any "newlywed" cards made up so decided to use this simple sentiment from Teeny Tiny Wishes. The little flower was made with the scallop punch from SU. I punched out 10 of them - in alternating black and white prints - scrunched them up a bit and placed the brad in the center.

Thanks for stopping by.....................

  10. I love this card. It is so elegant. Any shade of white works with any color. I tried to post a comment last evening but blogger wouldn't allow it. Kept telling me to clear my cookies?

  14. This has a very elegant feel to it. I like your flower. I tried to make one but it just didn't work out. I think my paper was too thick.

    I know what you mean about different whites. That happens to me a lot. And I never really notice the difference until I photograph the card and see it up close upon editing.
