Stamping With The Dragon Challenge #10

This fortnight the challenge over at Stamping With The Dragon is to use black, white and one other colour on your creation. We are sponsored by Toucan Scraps who is offering the winner six digi papers of their choice. I hope you can join us.

I decided to keep my card quick and simple this time, so there are no embellishments, no glitz and sparkle (yikes) and no designer papers, just a large area of white (gulp)! Oh and I also decided to stamp directly onto the card!!! I really wanted to show of the beautiful image on this card and decided this was the way to go - I hope it's worked out OK!!

So here is my naked card!!


Tools
Purple Cows Guillotine
Tim Holtz Blender

Materials
Image - Toucan Scraps
Card base - Craftwork Cards

    Very pretty. All it needs is a frame and you could use it as a picture on the wall.
