Black, White, and a splash of......

                                 PINK!! 

Here is my card for the current Play Date Cafe Challenge #91 : to create a card using the colors black-white- and a splash of one other color.



                                    This is what I created for the challenge.


Black & White

                        
I used my Hero Arts envelope background stamp for the base and some new stamps I just picked up at Michael's. The sentiment is from Studio G and the flower stamp is from Inkadinkado. I did a bit of paper peircing around the 2 corners for a bit of texture and interest. The flower is colored using a Marvy marker and watercoloring using the distress ink color worn lipstick.

I also am including  a picture of all of these great sentiment stamps I just got at Michael's. I love the variety and the fun shape of the font- plus you can't beat the price of $1.00 per stamp- yeah I love a good bargain!!  I"ll be using these sentiments on many upcoming creations. 


Thanks so much for stopping bye and have a great day all!
