Hi Ya! Didn't think I would be posting anything for a few days, but then I saw that the challenge over at the Stampin' Sisters In Christ is a challenge to make a black and white or black and cream project. I went with black and white. Grace's devotional this week is absolutely fantastic and a definite must read. I love how she contrasted the negative thoughts that we all have from time to time with the positive, affirming word of God!
For my card I used another newly acquired Layers of Color stamp: Silk Moth. I stamped the image on white cardstock using VersaMark watermark ink, applied black Filigree embossing powder and then heat set it. The image was then trimmed out and popped up on a piece of white cardstock that I ran through my Big Shot in a Sizzix embossing folder. To provide a bit more finish I added some black rhinestones to the image, as well as the embossed piece. I didn't put a sentiment on the card as I just wanted to let the image shine.
Thanks for taking a peek....
Supplies: Cardstock: Gina K. black; PTI white; Stamps: Layers of Color Silk Moth; Ink: VersaMark; Embossing Powder: Filigree Black; Gems: Black rhinestones
