Three Flowers in Black and White

Are you tired of looking at black and white cards yet? This is my last submission for the black and white color challenge at Addicted to Stamps. Once again I used punches instead of stamps. I punched three flowers from white cardstock that I had printed random words on with MS Word.  I added punched circles and adhered the flowers to black cardstock. I added a white dashed line around the outer edge of the black cardstock and a strip of the text at the base. (The text looks a bit blurry in the photo...sorry. I have a hard time taking photos of black and white cards.)

Supplies:
Cardbase: Paper Studios
Cardstock: Paper Recollections
MS Word
Gel Pen: Sakura
Punches: Ek Success
Adhesive: Scotch ATG, Scotch Quick Dry

Thanks for stopping by and I hope you've enjoyed my series of black and white cards. 
I have one more, but I'm not planning on posting it.

Trees with Text

This is yet another card with the black and white color combination.  I wanted to make a masculine card and felt the punched trees would work for this. I printed random words on white cardstock and then punched the three trees across a strip of it. I matted the strip on a piece of black cardstock and again on a piece of white cardstock. Along the edge of the white cardstock, I used a punch that looks like notebook paper. I adhered this to a larger black mat and then to the cardbase.  I'm submitting this for the black and white color challenge at Addicted to Stamps.

Black & White Again


The black and white color challenge at Addicted to Stamps has really inspired me. I have to admit that this is only the second of five cards that I've made with this color combination. I just love this color combination. I created this card with flower punches and hand drawn leaves and stems. I punched a total of six flowers and layered them adhering a white circle between each set of flowers. The layers don't show up very well in the photo.  I added twine and a dashed line around the edges and adhered the tag to the cardbase, along with a black strip of cardstock. .
