White on White

I love white on white cards, but I have to say trying to photograph them on a dark, rainy day is not an easy task. I had limited time as well as I had a busy schedule, and we’re packing up for a trip to Sarah’s for a week. Nonetheless, I’m hopping in here to post a White on White card for the CAS on Friday challenge as well as the Flower Challenge which calls for embossing.

When I sat down to create this card, I had a vision which was very different from what I ended up with. I started out by embossing some of the flowers in Simon Says “Delicate Flowers” set in white on vellum. I fussy cut a couple and played around with a variety of layouts and white on white backgrounds. I finally reached for one of the premade embossed cards I’ve had in my stash for years.

After adhering the flower to the center square I added some white dots to the stamens with a Signo pen for a little texture, and embossed a sentiment on another piece of vellum. 

The shadows when I was trying to photograph this obscure some of the dry embossing polka dots on the card. It’s really much nicer IRL! But the CAS on Friday challenge ends in a day, and we’ll be on the road so I need to get this linked up tonight.
