One more for this weeks' Color Combo Challenge (CC155) - Basic Black, River Rock and Whisper White. I needed a Thank You card and thought these colors would be perfect for what I had in mind.
The flowers are punched out of Basic Black with the 5-Petal Flower Punch. Each flower is made up of two punched out flowers. The bottom flower is plain Basic Black card stock with some faux stitching around the edges and the top flower is plain Basic Black card stock with a flower rub-on from the Perfect Day Rub-Ons. I used a white halfback pearl in the center of each flower. For the stems I used some fancy gathered ribbon I found a while back...which was perfect since it incorporated all the colors in the challenge.
Paper: Basic Black, River Rock, and Whisper White card stock; DCWV All Dressed Up designer paper
Ink: Basic Black Classic
Accessories: Pretties Kit, 1-3/8" Circle Punch; Scallop Circle Punch; 5-Petal Flower Punch; Photo Corner Rounder; Pearl Buckle; Basic Black Grosgrain Ribbon; White Gel Pen; Misc. Ribbon.
Gorgeous! The rub-ons are striking and the pearls bring the flowers together perfectly. The ribbons are perfect for this color challenge! Love the elegant pearl buckle! Pretty!
