White on White with a touch of Red



I've been awake for ages thanks to someone checking their tyres pressure with their very noisy engine running. Then my PC has turned into a man and doesn't want to multi task and then when it does start to work he takes ages to do anything.
Back to my card yes I promise to put the Simon says Stamp poinsettia parade and the Penny Black Holly dies away for a few days anyway. I've also used the large die from Penny Black for the background which is far too busy for my sentiment. I did put tape behind the words to make it a double layer but the lady who was card making at the retreat her words about 3 layering words on white on white to stand out keeps echoing in my head.
The sketch is vaguely Mojo Monday but for some strange reason instead of using the full card I cut it down for the mat across the middle which that meant my panel overlapped. Obviously had a moment, having plenty of those at the moment.


I thought I would photo the sentiment to show how pretty it is but those words are still haunting me. Today I have to make some DT cards, the images are all coloured and waiting to be made. Fingers crossed I get them all done today so I can make whatever I fancy.

You do wow cards so well Debby, scare me to bits I'm afraid. And the little touches of red really make the whole card come to life.

Hope you have a good weekend.

This is fabulous Debby, and the background die is delightful. I love the acetate you have but behind that too. White on white always appeals to me but the pop of red from the berries gives it that extra something. x

Kathleen said...

Absolutely gorgeous Debby, looks stunning, the sentiment is fine but if you are making another like this you could use red to match the pearls, the you wouldn't have to cut the die more than once.
Just a thought.
