Hello everyone: As always, I hope and pray you and your families are well in these very difficult times, please take care of yourselves and each other.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
The SHOPPING OUR STASH new challenge is one of my favorites, so I hope it will be one of yours too. For the next ten days, my teammates and I want to see cards with BLACK AND WHITE images.
I was going to stamp this image from an old Flourishes set called "Calla Lilies" on white card stock with Black ink and just add shading with a black pencil but, I felt a bit adventurous and decided to do the opposite, stamp the image in white ink and color it with a white Prismacolor pencil, to me it looks like the negative of a picture. This is a Sympathy card, we don't like to create these cards but it's good to have some at hand.

This is the INSIDE of the card.

This is what I used to create this card.
Flourishes "Calla Lilies"
Memento white ink.
White Prismacolor pencil.
Spellbinders Oval Regalia die.
The sentiments both in front and inside, as well as the
Calla Lily image are from the Flourishes set.
I want to play with the following challenges.
"Flowers all over"
No Pattern Paper.
I hope you come and play along with us over at SHOPPING OUR STASH, we can't wait to see your creations in our gallery.
Thank you for stopping by today.
Stay healthy and safe.
Hugs.
Maria.
