The House That Stamps Built: Black and White Challenge

 

     Our challenge this week at The House That Stamps Built is to just use black
and white on your card.


 I went with some patterned papers that have been in my stash for quite 
awhile, added a Deepest Sympathy sentiment and Dragonfly Deco,
stamped on vellum and embossed with a shimmer black embossing
powder. Unfortunately we need to have a few of these in our stash.
 
Black and white cards are quick and easy and usually very elegant.
 
Join our weekly challenge, you might just 
be the lucky winner of the monthly drawing for the
 $25 Repeat Impression's  gift certificate. you don't have to use
Repeat Impression stamps but an extra chance if you do.  
Drawing is the first Wednesday every month.

The dragonfly done on vellum is so lifelike and just stunning! Way to use those paper bits for a beautiful sympathy card too!

Oh, how lovely that dragonfly turned out with the shimmer black embossing and vellum. Good way to use up some hoarded DP on this layout too. Awesome job.

A beautiful and thoughtful card. Black and white cards always have an elegant look. I like the addition of the pretty dragonfly.

Serenely beautiful design. The sombre elegance that black and white can transmit make them an ideal choice for a sympathy card.
