I guess it helps to read the instructions!!
This week the TGIF Challenge Team was challenged to make a card with the Artisan Sketched Garden Designer Series Paper.
Give that I am a Last-Minute Lucy all the time, I went and looked at this graphic and thought, “Oh cool! Black and White!” WRONG!! Dang it!! Well, I am posting my card anyway!
Check out the blog challenge here - TGIF Challenge Blog if you’d like to play along.
Because I don’t actually have any black and white DSP (at least not any that I wanted to use!), I decided to make my own!
The background was created using the Water Decorative Mask (from the Dotted Lines & Water Decorative Masks pack).
I LOVE how it looks!
I used the stamps and dies from Lovely Arrangement to create the focal point, and even added some vellum by cutting some leaves using the dies.
And, I cheated a little. The black and white gingham ribbon just HAD to go on this even though it is retired! (So are the embellishments … I couldn’t help myself!)
Stamps: Lovely Arrangement
Paper: Basic White, Basic Black Vellum
Ink: Black Memento
Accessories: Lovely Arrangements Dies, Black & White Checked Gingham Ribbon (retired), Adhesive-Backed Sparkle Gems (retired)
I’m actually wearing a sweater today … and it’s RAINING!! Hallelujah! (I don’t really need the sweater any more, as it has warmed up a little since I left the house). Fall is coming, though!
