Love in black and white.

Hi hope you having a great day where ever in the world you may be.  It's Karen with you today sharing a card in black and white, with a touch of pink.

This is one of those creations that started out as one thing and went totally of track and became another.  I have to say though I actually really like the way it turned out.  It wasn't supposed to be just black and white but it works really well.

I stamped the image which is one of my favourite Kennedy Grace Creations stamps. Beautiful Blooms - Sweet Rose, onto white card stock.  I did this on two pieces of card.  One image I intended on colouring and couldn't decide whether to colour the whole image and cut out the letters or cut out and colour just the letters.  This is where it went off in its own direction as I cut out the letters and when I placed them on the image to see how they matched I really liked the simplicity of the black and white.  I cut the letters again in foam and glued the letters on so they came up off the image in the background.

I then stamped the black you which catches the eye and draws it up to the LOVE word.  To soften the card I added a small strip of pink and white stripe down the side.  I was going to add sequins but as you can see in the end I left them off.



Love and Laughter,
  Karen
