Back with Black

This week's challenge at CAS-ual Fridays is to create a clean and simple card using a black card base.  Black is not a color I use often, but I really like how this turned out.


supplies: black card base, white, pink and mint cardstock, Hero Arts CG247 Edged Fabric with Flowers, VersaFine onyx black ink and clear embossing powder, Memento pink and green markers, CL497 Find Joy, Tonic Daisy 2 Border Punch

The fabric stamp was stamped on white cardstock using black ink and clear embossed, then I colored in the flowers and leaves.

This card is simply delightful, Lin! What a perfect embossing! And are those pearls or liquid pearls that you used to embellish the pannel? Gorgeous!
