Black, White and one other colour

 

Hi There! We have a new Challenge starting tomorrow over in the Bee Crafty Facebook group, so I thought I would use today's blog post to make something to fit the theme. There is possibly a little more white space than I am used to, and I will try and fight the urge to add some splatters or a few sequins before the end of the post! 😂 

Here is how I put it together.

I began by blending some Peacock Feathers ink through the tag inkable. I used distress oxide but Distress ink would be just as good. 

Next I used versamark ink to stamp the circles and emboss using white embossing powder on a scrap of black card, which I cut out.

I used the lines stamps from the same set to add a line across the card about a third of the way up then added more down the left hand side.

Next I stamped the tape measure from the stitched borders onto a scrap of white card twice and cut out. I then cut the strips, one under the ten and one under the seven.

I used 3d glue to attach these elements to the base card.

Next I cut two small nesting circles from black and white card.

I stamped the butterfly onto the circle and also onto a scrap of card and painted both using Peacock Distress ink (again, distress oxide ink could be used for this purpose). I cut out the second butterfly and placed over the first using 3d glue.

Finally I stamped the sentiment using versafine clair ink.

Here is the finished card once more.

I used:

6x6 square white card blank

Tag inkables set 2
Journal Art Elements 2 stamp set

Stitch borders stamp set

Birds and Butterflies regular stamp set

Small words stamp set

Versafine Clair Black ink

Peacock feathers distress ink or distress oxide ink

Scraps of black and white card

White embossing powder

Versamark ink

Thanks for looking!
