Black and White Birthday

Hello there!  Glad you stopped by!

I have a black and white card inspired by the sketch over at Create with Connie and Mary!  Make sure you hop on over to see all of the cards they have created!



For my card I stated with a black card base and layered with some newsprint DSP.  I used my ovals framelits to create a layered oval using black and Very Vanilla. 

My sentiment is from Bring on the Cake!  I just love this set - perfect for any birthday!  I used one of the flowers from the stampset Flower Shop and stamped a little flower half on and half off in yellow.  I used the coordinating Pansy punch and punched a So Saffron flower and used my 7/8" Scalloped Circle punch to give me a center.  I wanted my flower to resemble a sunflower.  I added three little strips of black cardstock to the corner to follow the sketch - I liked how this card turned out. 

I hope you enjoyed my version of the sketch.

Happy Stampin'
