Blue, Black and White

Hello there, I hope you are staying warm and cozy....seems like winter is back for a while. So maybe you can find some crafty time, and join us at Charisma Cardz for this week's challenge of Blue, Black and White.


I've gone with a simpler design this time....no image to colour.  I could say it was quick and easy to do, except that it's been partially finished for a few months now.  The card blank was already embossed, and I lightly brayered over it with black....and there it sat.  Looking for something for this week's challenge, I added the blue DI and it took on a whole new life!  The sentiment is from the Inkadinkado set..Garden Flower, and I've given it a bit of ribbon treatment and some silver brads.  The corner flourish has been painted to coordinate, and then one little butterfly finishes it off.

Be sure to check out what the rest of the DT has been up to, and hopefully you will get the chance to join in this week too.  Once again, we have some generous sponsors and wonderful prizes up for grabs!
