Black and white

Just a couple of cards I made this week using black and whit as the main colours.

This first one is for Viva La Verve's Sketch Challenge #4 for August and Play Date Café's Challenge #149 to use these colours. I went for a bit of heat embossing on this one, which is a technique I don't do enough!

And here's my card.

Recipe:

Stitches and Swirls from PTI Signature Greetings II from PTI Basic Black Ink/Cardstock Whisper White Ink/Cardstock Lucky Limeade Ink/Cardstock Versamark White Embossing Powder from SU Lucky Limeade Ruffled Ribbon from SU Dotted Scallop Ribbon Border Punch from SU Buttons from stash Baker's Twine from The Ribbon Reel (various colours)

My next card is for A Passion for Papertrey's Congratulations Challenge, Cupcake Crafts Challenge #206 to use black and white and for Make It Monday's Challenge #79 to use fabric die cuts. I do think this card is a bit busy, but I kind of like it. The fabric was too floppy on its own so I glued the centres of each butterfly on to another die cuts of the same butterfly but in card and they worked much better.
