This adorable Fred She Said image was used with some sweet Bearly Mine Designs Digi paper. No, I didn’t take this picture in black and white, it actually is all black and white and grey. I printed the image and the paper in black and white. I punched the butterflies in dark grey and in black, the leaves are also in dark grey. I used black cardstock behind the image. I used some black ribbon across the middle and for the bow. The sentiment is from Create With TLC. I made the stick pins using pearls adn some black beads. I added some pearls to the butterflies and near the flowers. I added two pictures, one with a black background one with a blue background…wasn’t sure what one looked better.
Thanks for looking!

Karen – I love the colour scheme in this card as a big fan of black and white I can’t understand how few people use it! Your colouring and shading are breathtaking and the layout is simply divine. Thanks for inspiring. I saw you over at MIM and needed a closer look – and oh boy! am I glad I did. Awesome.

OMGoodness! This makes me want to start singing “Somewhere Over the Rainbow”. I love the B&W theme with the tiny touch of yellow. As soon as Dorothy gets to Munchkin Land, everything will be awash in color. This is stunning creation and so cleverly done. I saw it first on Make It Monday and popped over for a closer look.
Blessings,
