Lots of white.......by Miranda

Hi there,

Today my 3rd guest designers post and this time I used a lot of white.....or better to say....I did not fill a lot of the white paper........and that is hard for me LOL.......

But I always like the effect and I wonder why I don't make that kind of cards more often. 

I have used several sheets: Pretty Poppies, Fresh Blooms and Bold Blooms, Lace Fragments and the sentiment from the Floral Notes.

I have stamped the poppies using white ink onto smooth black cardstock and colored them with color pencils. I have embossed the elements of the Fresh and Bold blooms with black and colored them with water based markers. 

Some white acrylic marker accents as usual and than decoupaged them. I always colour the edges of the decoupaged elements with a marker so you can't see the white of the paper.

The lovely lace border and text is stamped using black Versaclair.

I had a tiny colored piece left over so I made an xtra small card........using another beautiful lace border( from the Lace fragments) and the words are from the ' Words of Gratitude' sheet. The small flower is from the ' Dusky Damask' sheet. Only adding some pearls and this card was finished.......

Hope you did like my ' white space' cards and thanks for your visit and comments!

If you have any questions, feel free to ask,

I will have another post coming in the first week of February, so

see you then!
