Cheerful Monday #48 - Black & White

Today is Monday and time for a new challenge, a colour challenge over at the Cheerful Stamp Pad: Black & White. This colour combination is always so classy and I love both colours very much.

 

I created the card background by stamping repeatedly little Penny Black flowers with Memento Tuxedo Black ink. It was not only fun but was also very relaxing (lol)

 

I added some black card and a digital stamp from Bugaboo Digi Stamps. To embellish the card I stamped two butterflies from Crafty Individuals and cut them out and also added some very narrow gingham ribbon.

Hope you have time to join us and also pop over to the blog to see all the fabulous creations from the DT! Petra.

Cheerful Monday #43 - Postale Card

It is Monday and time for a new project for Vicki's lovely challenge: Use Some Ribbon. Ribbons are purely used as embellishments on this card

The base is a white (not sure why it appears to have a pink shade :-( ) slightly textured card. I added some nice old German book text with distressed edges and  a very old postal mail tag I found in my stash. The tag is adorned with some postale washi tape (7Gypsies) and a lovely stamp from Craft Stamper Magazine. The image is stamped with Stazon and very lightly coloured with chalks. 

To finish the card I added some lovely linen ribbons and some vintage buttons.

Hope you can visit Vicki's blog for more fab inspiration and to join us for the challenge, Petra.
