Today I decided to go with a monochrome theme and made a black and white birthday card. Two colours that I have never combined before. Usually I only used either a white or black card (as base) never both.
But there is always a first time to everything right. At the starting of the project I was quite unsure, feeling that the card will turned out to be dull and boring. Almost switch to another colour.
But my fingers kept on going. I used the white cardstock as the base. Then I die cut 4 black leafy spirals using my Spellbinders Sapphire and join them up to form a square. Then I stamped some flowers with black ink and this time I hand cut them. I glued the flowers at the middle of each leafy spirals. Then glued white pearl at the center of each flower.
For the sentiment, again I die cut a Happy Birthday greeting and added a white pearl at the top for the added touch.
At the end of my 'monochrome project' I can't deny that I am actually surprised that it turned out not as how I imagined it at first. It doesn't look dull and boring after all.
Since it turned out to be a successful project, I definitely will try making more monochrome cards in future.
