Today I am sharing a sweet monochromatic card made for the latest Inspire Create #40 Challenge. It is a colour challenge this time and the colours are Black and White.

Making the monochromatic card

You will need;
Thick Whisper White card base – rounded upper right corner
Basic Black – 5½” by 3¾” – rounded upper right corner
Whisper White – 5⅜” by 3⅝” – rounded upper right corner
Basic Black – 3⅝” by 1⅝”
Whisper White – 3⅝” by 1½”

I began by masking off a 1½” strip of the larger Whisper White panel using a Post It note.

I randomly stamped a variety of the flowers and leaf images from the Bloom by Bloom stamp set in Memento Tuxedo Black ink above and below the masked area taking care to overlap the masked area. I rounded the upper right corner of the stamped panel and added it to the Basic Black layer with Multipurpose Liquid Adhesive.

I placed the small Whisper White strip into the Stamparatus and positioned the sentiment stamp, from the Blow Out The Candles stamp set. I picked the stamp up with one of the plates.

The stamp was then inked up using the Memento Tuxedo Black ink and stamped down on the panel of white cardstock. I repeated this step twice to get a good dark image. I stamped a couple of the small flowers either side of the sentiment.

This panel was then added to the remaining panel of Basic Black cardstock with the same glue and added to the card front with Dimensionals. The whole panel was then added to the Thick Whisper White card base using the Multipurpose Liquid Adhesive.

I stamped a couple of the images inside the card and on the envelope and added a scattering of Rhinestones to the front of the card

I am really happy with how this monochromatic card  turned out. I hope you like it.
