This week's Blogger's Challenge was to create a card using only black and white. When I saw what the challenge was, I knew that I wanted to use the Fresh Cuts stamp set that will be featured in the upcoming Stampin' Up! Idea Book and Catalog. This stamp set is so beautiful and elegant that it really doesn't need much to make it pop!
All products used are Stampin' Up!
Stamp set: Fresh Cuts
Card stock: Basic Black, Whisper White
Inks: Stazon Black and Craft Whisper White
Accessories: Whisper White Taffeta Ribbon, White Embossing Powder, Stampin' Heat Gun
To get your own Fresh Cut Stamp set, shoot me an email and I'll get that and anything else you would like to order!
LOVE it! Casing it! The ribbon is perfect, did you do 2 strips and tie it together in the front? I gotta know, gf!

This is just gorgeous Jeanette. Love how you used the words background and fancied it up with the flowers. I had never thought of using that flower background stamp that way. Beautiful job!!
