White on White

Welcome!

It's a New Year and time for a New Challenge at the Cheerful Stamp Pad.

Our theme this week is White as Snow. I really like to play with just white - it gives you the chance to play with textures and white embellishments. My card is simple with embossing, some ribbon and lace and a touch of bling from my Gelly Roll.

Here is a close-up of my embossed letters:

I'm planning to use it for an upcoming wedding. Hope you like it!
 

Our generous sponsor this week is Classy Cards 'n Such. She has a lovely variety of goodies, including lovely lace that you can use for your own white card. Do visit her fabulous shop. A $10 voucher is up for grabs!

I hope I have inspired you to make a white card and enter our challenge. You don't have to use just white like me, as long as your creation is mainly white, you can enter. Go and have a peek The Cheerful Stamp Pad for more inspiration from the Design Team.

Oh, I forgot to mention, our upcoming challenges are in the right hand column on the blog! So while you are creating, you can start thinking...

Anything Goes Textured with a Sketch!.

Welcome!

I've combined 2 challenges to create my ATC.

The first is the 'Anything Goes with an Optional Sketch #10' at Jackson's Digital Expressions.
The second is 'Texture' at A Day for Daisies.

I used the sweet 'New Shell Baby' that is provided as a freebie for the challenge on A Day for Daisies.
The handmade paper of the base card provides the texture. I coloured the image with my pencils and lightly blended it.

The sketch on Jackson's Digital Expressions inspired the layout. I cut the flags out of cardstock & a paint chip. The stars were punched out of the same. A rhinestone adds a final touch.

Hope you like my ATC:
