August 2022 NC Demos Blog Hop
Welcome to the NC Demos Blog Hop we are here the last Sunday of each month and are so happy you could join us. The theme for this month is "Black and White Cards" easy right. I love black and white cards no matter what the subject the cards are always classy, elegant and fun. My card this month uses the Christmas Scottie Stamp Set. Perfect for a black and white card.
My card base is Basic Black cut 5 1/2 x 8 1/2 and scored at 4 1/2. I then went through all my stacks of current paper and picked out the black and white ones I really liked and thought would look good with the card I had in mind. Since the card is black my first DSP piece has more white in it and is cut 5 1/4 x4 the next piece has more black and this was cut 5 x 3 3/4 and the last piece was cut 4 3/4 x 3 1/2 and has the most white on it. Once these were all layered the next part was easy punch out the Scottie in Black and put him on the card with dims. I then punched out the bow in white and glued that around the Scottie's neck. I then cut out a piece of white and stamped my salutation in black and added it to the top left of the DSP and basically my card was done quick and easy.
For the inside I took white 5 1/4 x 4 and a strip of leftover DSP added it to the left side of the white piece and put it in the card.
To finish the card I added 4 Classic Matte Dots to the card making sure one went on the dogs bow and a white one for his eye. And my simple, elegant and fun Black and White card was done.
Thank you so much for stopping by and make sure you check out the other blogs for some really great Black and White ideas. These ladies are top notch when it comes to great cards. I hope to see you here next month in the meantime stay safe.
