Black and White

I got two new dies that I have not used and  the Poppy Stamp Back to Black Challenge was perfect for using both of them.  This is prettier in real life because the black background is black glitter paper. The Cover plate is from IO and the top snowflake is Poppy Stamps  Marias Snowflake. I will also enter it in Kats Scrappiness World-Card Making Day


Frames as a Background.

I decided to take a break from Christmas cards to enter a challenge at Paper Trey Ink. Look at Amy's beautiful card made with frames as a backdrop. What a fun way to dress up the front of a card and still keep a clean design.

You can see Amy Schaffer's video on this make it Monday Challenge HERE. What a fun way to dress up the front of a card and still keep a clean design.


I started with gold card stock and embossed it with an IO script background embossed in gold. I used three frames from Frantic Stamper. The stamp is PTI Feather finery that is stamped on black card embossed in gold for the first layer and white for the second layer. I will enter this in the following challenges.
