One Stitch at a Time - Challenge 23


I made this card for my parents' wedding anniversary this past weekend -it's a bit different for me because there's no stamping involved!
I've used black and white decoupage which has feint silver lines in it - hard to pick up on the photo but they look much better ' in the real'. I've layered the design up using black and silver pearl paper and added a peel off greeting on the base of the easel as the 'stopper'.
The theme for challenge 23 on One Stitch at a Time is black and white plus one other colour so I'm entering this card.
