Fabulous Florets In Black And White!

By | 08/15/2013

Fabulous Florets in black and white makes for an elegant card!  Actually, most cards created in black and white have an elegant look.  The Fabulous Florets stamp set is a great floral stamp set with a beautiful sentiment by e.e. cummings.  This card actually looks quite a bit more complicated than it really is.  I love making cards that look really complex, but really don’t take that long to make!

Card Details:

Paper and Ink:  Basic Black (cut at 4-1/4 x 11″, score at 5-1/4″, cut one piece at 2-1/4 x 4-1/2″), Whisper White cut at 4-1/8 x 5-3/8″, cut at 2-1/2 x 4-3/4″), Versa Mark Ink

Stamp Sets:  Fabulous Florets, Label Love

Accessories:  Big Shot, Beautifully Baroque Embossing Folder, White Embossing Powder, Artisan Punch, Heat Gun, Black Taffeta Ribbon, Whisper White Ribbon, Neutrals Buttons, Pearls

 

This Fabulous Florets black and white card has quite a bit of texture and dimension.  It has several layers, including layered ribbons.  It’s been dry embossed and heat embossed as well.  When I first stamped the images, I used White Craft ink.  I liked it, but it wasn’t popping enough.  When I heat embossed the image, it gave me the Wow! factor I was looking for!

I also really like that the Label Love images and the Artisan Punch leave a little boarder of card stock around the stamped image.  It automatically gives you the look of a mat behind the image without all of the trouble of actually making one!
