My plan when I created this card was to flip the sketch from horizontal to vertical, and try a black/white/light blue color combo. This flower stamp, from Stampin' Up!, is so gorgeous and I didn't want a bunch of color & patterns distracting from it.
I used Memento Luxe Tuxedo Black ink to stamp the flower. I practice 4 or 5 times to get it just right, but the result is a striking stamped image. I masked off the sentiment from the stamp and used a small sentiment from Papertrey Ink instead.
Make sure to check back tomorrow for another project that I created using this sketch. I'm participating in a fun blog hop (with prizes!) that you won't want to miss!
Such a beautiful card, Erin!!!! Love it!!!

ReplyDeleteHi Erin,
ReplyDeleteThe black/white contrast is truly eye-catching. Love the simplicity!
Not sure if anyone has mentioned, when I clicked the link to get here on the retro page, it took me to a post waayyyyy back in time on your blog? Lucky for me I knew how to navigate to this post. Perhaps thats why you only have a few comments, your card is fab and deserves more!
Blessings,
Barb
