Tearing up a Colour Challenge

By
My card tonight combines 2 challenges
Less is More - Tearing
Dynamic Duos

Here is my card


I used white card stock for my base and then added some Basic Black and more Whisper White run through a Swiss Dots embossing folder. My flowers are Stampin' Up punches and I have added a black brad to the centre.
My tearing is on the middle panel, I used torn pieces of masking to create a trellis effect, I then sponged over it with black ink.
Here's a close up


Thanks for looking - see you soon - Jacqueline xx

    Stunning technique Jacqueline, I got up really close and that centre panel is fab! Another idea to file away:)

    Many apologies for the tardiness of my visit this week, a cruise to Norway intervened somewhat!

So I got to work straight away and now my desk looks like this There is a hidiously green magnetic board complete with snail magnets that I won in a raffle - just right for altering, some wooden drawer knobs onto which I will attach some foam to use with my disress inks and my chipboard albums from last week that I didn't get round to doing. Also found when clearing from one room to another was my old jewelery display board which will soon be converted to a card display board and an old set of corner shelves. All they needed was a quick flick of a J-Cloth and a spray of Flash (oops advertising - other cleaning products are avaliable) and they now stand proudly in my craft room displaying my most recent cr

 I have decided to try and get on top of my Christmas cards early this year and so far it’s going well!!!
