Red Black and white


Well, orders can be very specific at times, and so here is another quick post.
The request was a birthday card in black and white with a large splash of red for her granddaughter!! So I made this one here, with the red background, mounted on white cardstock.
The floral stamps are from "Wildflower Sprigs" by Stampendous (clear stamps). Lovely aren't they and quite versatile, too.
The butterfly stamp is part of a set from Victorine Originals (US).
The swirls stamped image is from "Wild Daisy Rd" set Heidi Grace Clear Stamps by Fiskars, it is bordered by the Taylor Eyelet Border die to make the edges to the bottom panel. A black and white spot ribbon with my Bow-easy making the bow. I have yet to master that Bow-easy!! A few diamantes in red and pearls to finish it off! (Note to self: to get some black bling.)
Have to get onto another order, a 60th again!! God bless and happy crafting!

    A very striking and stunning card. Shows how effective a limited palette of colours can be.

    You are so right Maggie, I would not have thought of doing this card without the colour palette choice, there you are! hope it is starting to warm up over there!
