Whew! I'm just about late with this one! I had very good intentions of making this challenge card before today but hey that's life! I could not pass up playing along with The Play Date Cafe and their challenge this week........Black. White. + splash of color!!
I inked up this music background set from PTI for the first time! Love this....going to be a favorite for sure!
This is pretty straight forward CAS card except that I kept trying to add more color and I had to keep reminding myself that 'Amy, it's a splash of color!' So after having out purple inks and ribbon, I settled on these little rosettes from Michael's. Just a splash!
Here's the inspiration photo from The Play Date Cafe. I've also linked this up over at the Creative Inspirations blog and the Stamptacular Sunday Challenge blog for their challenges too!
{I Love you So Much}
All supplies PTI unless stated.
Stamps: BB: Sheet Music, Signature Greetings, FF #10
Paper: Stamper's Select White, True Black
Ink: True Black
Misc: Rosettes (M's), FF #10 Die, White Satin Ribbon, Border Punch (EK Success)
