You all know that I love black & white cards.
Check out this one!
I used the 'Wrapped Bouquet' Bundle.
This is a totally Susie card.
But look at how I stepped up this card......
On the top one I stamped directly onto the Basic White card stock.
On the bottom one I stamped onto a piece of Basic White card stock,
die cut it out & then popped it up with dimensionals onto the Basic White layer.
I added in some black leaves that I die cut out.
And I also colored the flowers, added some Wink of Stella over them
& put a small pearl in the center of each flower.
So which one do you like better?
I think they are both very pretty!
The top black & white one is simple, yet elegant & simple to make.
The colored one is gorgeous, but does take a few more supplies & time to make.
Don't you think that coloring the flowers gives this an added pop.
Here are the supplies & measurements.
