Another Black and White Card

Yesterday I participated in another sketch challenge on SUDSOL.  I don't have a copy of the original sketch that we used for inspiration, but here's the card I made for the challenge.

 

I decided to use the Baroque Motifs stamp set and, once again, make it a black and white card with a splash of another color.  All of the swirls were stamped in Basic Black Craft ink and embossed with Clear Embossing Powder.  I wanted to emboss the flower too, but Stampin' Up! doesn't make a Riding Hood Red Craft ink pad.  To get around this, I inked the flower in Versamark ink and then inked it on the Riding Hood Red Classic ink pad.  After I stamped it on my cardstock I embossed it with Clear Embossing Powder.  This is an easy way to be able to emboss in any color ink pad you have.

 

I used Shimmery White cardstock for this card.  As you can see in the photo (click on the photo for a larger view), it really shimmers and shines.

 

I used the same basic layout for the inside of my card.  I embossed part of a swirl in the corner and then added an embossed flower on top.

Thanks for stopping by today!  ~Dannie
