White on White

Good morning its so sunny and lovely up here in the Northwest hope you have got some too wherever you are!  Today is a new challenge at Crafty Sentiments and the theme for this challenge is:

WHITE ON WHITE

so we want to see just white on your creation apart from your image which may be coloured. Remember if you use a Crafty Sentiment image your entry counts 3 times just add 3 after it, if you are a follower of the Inspirations Blog your entry will count 3 times so just add 3 after it and if you do both then your entry will count 6 times so add 6 after it! Here is my card:


I decided to go with a mono look for this one.  The image is Springtime Delight available here from Crafty Sentiments and I have coloured her with my Copics and some Stickles.  She has been cut out using Dienamics Stitched Oval Stax.  I used Centura Pearl and embossed it with two embossing folders and then cut it using Spellbinders A2 Bracket Borders One.  The flower is a Magnolia Doohickey die, Cheery Lynn Butterfly die and MB Precious Hearts. The pleated ribbon is from The Ribbon Girl.  

Here is another view:


We have a wonderful prize for the lucky winner:

Little darling Rowan, bless his heart, it's good news when they go home but gosh they go home early now days.

Your card Susan is a breath of fresh air, stunningly beautiful and love that pleated lace. I have never use it but it is oh so effective.
I do hope you are taking time out, have a glass of wine, put your feet up and smile as all's good.xx
