I'm the hostess today for the Ways To Use It challenge! We are using two colors today, in any way and those are black and white! This classic combination appeals to my clean and simple stamping senses.
A couple of notes about my card today. I inked my stamp first with Versamark and then in Tuxedo Black so that I could use clear embossing powder. I have terrible luck when I use black embossing powder and it seems to get everywhere that it is not supposed to go! Also, I made this card for one of my reading students. He hates everything about reading and loves everything about motorcycles! (I just learned the motorcycle part.) I'm hoping to build a relationship so that he can enjoy reading group a little bit!
Thanks for looking!

Oh, I totally hear you on black ep. I rarely use it. I bet this looks fab with the embossing, and the corner treatment is great. Good luck with your student.

Oh how I love this motorcycle Toni. I recently found a ne motorcycle die cut and can't wait to use it for a card for my brother. Great black and white card.

Toni I’m not usually a B&W card maker but I so enjoyed the challenge. Your card is lovely. The frame really makes the bike and sentiment pop. Happy day
