This card combines Kristina's color challenge #19 with Kazan's Sketch #7 from 2 Sketches 4 You.
I really love the touch of yellow in the pictures, so I decided to use that for my tiny bit of accent color.
I tried my quickie glue pen to adhere the Silver Bells dew drops to my scalloped black cardstock. It worked much better than trying to use glue dots, although I wonder if they would stay on through the mail?
The white cardstock is stamped with the large flourish from Fancy Pants From the Garden. I reversed the flourish and stamped it again at the top to cover the entire 7 1/2" length.
I layered Primas and a deconstructed yellow silk flower with a large black brads. I used a yellow glaze pen on the tiny bloom on my Stampendous Thinking Window to add another tiny touch of color.
Thanks ladies for such fabulous inspiration.
What a great card -- love how the YELLOW pops against all the black & white! :)
