Rainbow Lady's Challenge # 132


Rainbow Lady's current challenge - which is covering two weeks - is to choose your favourite of her challenges of 2010 and use that theme. I have chosen 'Black, White and Silver' for this card. I embossed the front of the card through the Cuttlebug and then applied Encore Silver ink direct to paper - covering the whole card front. The borders top and bottom are punched with an MS punch and the toppers cut with Wizard dies. The Harlequin is a Judikins die from Stamp Addicts and the greeting is from the Stamp Man. The 'notes' cube stamp I have was too big for the tag so I used black peel offs. I knew they would come in handy one day.
I'd like to wish everyone who visits a Very Happy New Year and hope it brings peace and prosperity to all.
Thanks very much for visiting today.

Hi Beryl
Hope you are well and wishing you a very Happy New Year. I'm glad you had a lovely Christmas but not sure whether you were telling the truth over just 4 glasses of wine and upside cards!!!!!!!That made me laugh.
Your Harlequin card is stunning. Black and White works so well.
Have a good week.
Hugs Lisax

What a lovely card. The colours make it 'pop'. I have never tried card making but it seems the natural progression from scrap booking. I'm only a newbie all round though but love your blog! Glad to have discovered it.
