I created this mini-slim card with new frame and floral dies from Crafty Meraki. I cut the nested frames from both black and white, and inlaid them onto my cardbase. I cut the leaves and flowers from white cardstock and ink-smooshed them, and added some white splatter when they were dry. I layered up two each for the flowers, for extra interest and dimension.
My sentiment strip is actually part of a leftover white frame (another use for these versatile frame dies!)

Ardyth, this is a beautiful case of Shirl's card. I love the crisp black and white background and how it shows off the contrast with the colorful flowers. Gorgeous!

Love the colors against the black and white - so stunning and the flowers are wonderful. This is so visually appealing and beautiful, Ardyth. Those are some cool dies and great techniques. Wonderful case. Hugz

What a bold and striking card with the black and white framing. Those "smooshed" flowers look fabulous against the frames. Love that you used a "leftover" for the sentiment too. Wonderful case and an awesome card. Fav'd.
