Kelly Jo's Color Chef #11 challenge took me by surprise. Believe it or not, last night as I lay stuffed up and half watching the horrendous 'movie' Notorious, I thought about making a cream and white card. Well bamboo and white are a great practice!
Here's my card. I got inspiration from Dawn McVey's peach card of tone on tone background with white flourishes. Not that mine is anywhere near as cute as hers--but I can aspire.
And I really wanted to add embellishments, but I don't have bamboo stuff and white brads just didn't look very cute. I couldn't make buttons work, so I used a gold paint pen to edge the bamboo cardstock.
It's doesn't jump out at you, but I know it's there. ;) Oh yes and I am still loving that macro setting. I need to practice with my lighting though...
I stamped those flourishes with white ink, but it would not show up, so I traced it with a white paint pen.
Details: all CTMH unless noted
Paper: bamboo and white daisy cs
Ink: white daisy, bamboo
Stamps: Playful Flourishes, Gracious Greetings, Intrinsic Backgrounds
Other: gold and white paint pen from Zig, foam squares

I think this card came out GREAT!
Was 'notorius' really that bad? lol
It does not need ANY embellies!!! It is just perfect as is. GORGEOUS.
Beautiful card! I love it!!
so weird that you were thinking of a cream and white card!
Your card is absolutely stunning and I think it is beautiful how you did the edges. Great details!
