Our new challenge for you today over at Crafty Cardmakers is Black and White.
I have used some lovely black and white papers from a company called Bearly Mine which sadly stopped producting when the stupid VAT rules changed a few years back for digital only companies! Anyhow I picked 4 of the designs and I was going to print them and then the cut them down and make them into a set of four papers cut into quarters, but in order to save both ink and paper I did the work on the pc instead. So I cut each paper down to a quarter of it’s size and then overlaid them onto a black background and then just printed it as one sheet. I matted this layer onto a white square card.
The image is from D’arcy’ Diaries, again another company that stopped producing these lovely digis a few years back. This image was perfect for a black and white challenge I thought. I die cut it with my new Crafters Companion vintage lace dies, as I also did for the black matting diecut layer.
The top sentiment is from Craftwork Cards and the Sister word I created on my pc.

ReplyDeleteIt's such a shame that so many wonderful companies have gone to the wall over the last few years.

This is so elegant, eye-catching and beautiful. I'm feeling two colour and monochromatic makes more than ever this year (now, actually convincing myself to actually work with just one or two colours for my own projects is a whole 'nother story though, lol! :D).
