Black & White

 Happy Friday Friends ... 

I have a busy day ahead of me but wanted to share a quick card I created for the May Colorful Options challenge where their main theme is Black  & White. 

 

 I have used the Simon Says 3D embossing folder 'Blossom Bursts (SF470)' as the base of my black & white card and colored in the flower centers using a black Tombow marker.  

 The center sentiment is from Heartfelt Creations (no longer in business) and was an RAK from NC friend Sandy.  She went crazy during their close out sales and was kind enough to stamp/die cut this set in a variety of colors and sent them along to me.  I have colored in the flowers on several to use later but since the theme today is black/white I just added it 'as is'.  

Challenges to share in:

Aud Sentiments Chlg #337 - Embossing and/or flowers + sentiment (ends 5/29)
AAA Birthday Challenge #85 - ATG Birthday (ends 5/31)



 Addicted to CAS #307 - Birthday (ends 5/15)

 

Well, that's it for me today.  I'd better get started on these other projects ... 
time is a wasting as they say!  lol

Thanks so much for stopping by today and here's wishing you an amazing day today & FABULOUS weekend ahead.  Every day is a blessing!!

As always . . .

  3. Love the dramatic elegance of your black and white card, and the Blossom Bursts embossing folder creates incredible depth while the simple sentiment panel adds a clean focal point that keeps the design refined and modern.

  4. Goodness, this is one amazing black and white beauty, Darlene! The sentiment with rose buds is fantastic. I always admired how closely HC dies cut the images. The fabulous floral background is a prime example of why I'm so addicted to embossing folders, and SSS are some of my favorites!
