Hi friends! Today's card boasts black and white with just a touch of color! I love black and white cards, so this card will be a classic beauty! I'll be using Beauty Found in a Vase stamp, Polka Dot Flora background stamp, and Pinking Shear A2 cover Plate die!
As I was trying to decide what color to stamp the Polka Dot Flora background stamp in, I decided to do it in black. And I wasn't disappointed, as this stamp is so amazing! After I stamped the flora image, I trimmed it and placed it over a black piece of cardstock that was die cut using the Pinking Sheer A2 Cover Plate. I thought the design of that die added interest! Then both layers were placed onto a white 5.5x4.25 card base!
Now, onto the focal point, the flowers!
I decided to keep the color of the flowers very basic, so I went with shades of red and kept the vase in shades of grey to compliment the black background. The flowers were heat embossed in gold and then colored with alcohol inks. Then I die cut the image, added foam tape, and adhered it over the black and white background! I also stamped and die cut one of the coordinating sentiments and placed it next to the flowers! This was LITERALLY all I did for this card! Sometimes simpler is better, and you can never go wrong with a black and white card!
