Thinking of You Black and White

This is a challenge for Stamp TV..Mix It Up Monday which was to create a card stamping a sentiment ONLY! (Here is the website)

I LOVE making cards in black and white and this seemed to fit the particulars perfectly. I used the sentiment from GKD Stenciled Spring and stamped it in Hero Arts White on black cs and then highlighted it with white opaque pen. I placed it inside a GKD Lovely Labels frame in Tuxedo Black Memento, highlighted with clear Sakura glitter pen and cut out with Labels 11 by Spellbinders. I used GKD white cs, Paper Studio dp Black and White. Added some brads, flowers by Spare Parts and black and white ribbon and pearls in the corners colored with black Copic marker. I also used Martha Steward lace punch on the outside and the inside. The sentiment on the inside is from GKD Sweetest Memories.

Happy Day

This was a challenge for Outlines Monday Challenge 15 -- Beautiful Borders.  (Here is the website)

 I used the Outlines stamps Flower Strip border E553, Wavy Posy Large  G 1026, Wavy Posy Medium E1027, Wavy Posy Small D1028,  Posy Greeting Centers F1049 and also Hello C271 on the inside. After stamping the flowers with Tuxedo Black Memento ink I then cut the flowers out and popped them on top of one another with a Posy greeting in the center that was stamped with Danube Blue Memento and added some Stickles for sparkle. It is placed on a grass green cs by GKD, Making Memories Flutter is the dp. After using Martha Stewart Punch for the lacy punch along the edge, the border was placed on the side of the front of the card and colored with Copics. Added some ribbon, bling, buttons with corded thread, flowers (by Studio g) and a little Hello inside. And it is ready to go to the mail with a warm Hello.

This is for Speedy Cat's Challenge...Week 70 -- Use Lace on Your Card. (Here is the website)

 I did use a LITTLE bit of lace on this card...but my main goal was to use this adorable stamp set from Mark's Finest Products...Fun on the Farm and the sentiment on the inside is from Floating Along by MFP. I used Outright Lemon cs from MFP and dp was from Oriental Trading as were the brads and ribbon. It was stamped with Tuxedo Black, Rich Cocoa and Pear Tart Memento and colored with Copics and Sakura glitter pens. I added some paper lace, ribbon and bow and some bling with the brads. Cut out the images with Labels 3 by Spellbinders.

                             Just thinking of you and saying Hay! Cow are ya?
