Play Date Cafe Challenge #46


The challenge at PDCC#46 is to use black and white with a splash of either pink, copper, or gold.  I chose the copper option and made a simple thank you card.  The background is 2 different design papers, the frame and sentiment are stamped, and my flower is made of a metallic copper cardstock, which lost most of its glow when I wet the paper to form the petals.  It's still copper, though!



Supplies: white, andblack cardstock, The Paper Company cool metallics,  foof-a-La Jacobean black and The Paper Studio Vintage Black Stripe designer papers, Hero Arts CL130 Frames and Messages, CL341 Thank You Sayings, black brad

Super job Lin! Wonderful black and white with a splash of copper! And I could see the copper shimmer in the center of the flower; it didn't totally disappear. Love that flower as well, made a few myself and what a fabulous detail it gives to your card! Thanks for playing along with us this week at the Play Date Cafe!
