I can't believe it's Monday again and time for another challenge! This week Danielle Flanders shows us how to do black and white stamping with a pop of color. You can watch her work her magic in this video - Make It Monday #260: From Black & White To Color.
Harvest Berries doesn't owe me a thing, I certainly have used this set many, many times over the years! I die-cut the stitched oval in the center of a piece of A2 size white cardstock. Keeping the die-cut in the panel and using black ink, I stamped the sentiment and the leaves around it. I used Danielle's idea and heat embossed everything with clear embossing powder. Boy, did it make it the ink super black! lol
I used Copic markers on the larger leaves to do some partial coloring in oranges and greens. The one cluster of small leaves is solid black. All of the leaves are outlined with a warm grey color. I popped up the oval on fun foam and placed the entire panel on a white cardstock card base with a thin strip of orange striped paper on the right side.
To finish things, I tied white crochet thread around the top. It was really hard to get a good picture of this card but hopefully you get the idea...it's much prettier in person, especially with the black embossing!
