Black and White Prim Poppy


My card today was made for the Memory Box Challenge #5 "Black & White." I used the Memory Box Prim Poppy die, cutting it 3 times from black, and 3 times on the white panel. I placed the black poppies inside the white panel for an inlaid design. I added a tiny SU! die cut butterfly, along with some black Pizzazz Aplenty gemstones and a small snippet of gingham ribbon. The sentiment is from Lily of the Valley.

That's going to do it for me today, but thanks for stopping by and I wish you a great weekend!

VERY dramatic in the black on white. Love the way you've placed the 3 motifs & as always, perfect inlay placement. Delightful touch with the gingham ties and the shine of the black pearls and tiny butterfly. TFS & have a wonderful Sunday. Hugs
