Black & White Design Team Challenge Nigezza Creates


Measurements and Materials

Making the card

  • The card layers are my usual C6 card base and 1/4" smaller layers all the way around.

    • Half a standard A4 Sheet of card stock
      • 5 7/8" x 8 1/4"
    • Folded size
      • 5 7/8" x 4 1/8"
    • Mat #1 size
      • 5 5/8" x 3 7/8"
  • I used basic black for the card base
  • Whisper White Mat as cut for the middle of the card as well as the top
  • The top Whisper White Mat was embossed with the Subtle embossing folder 
  • The topper is is made using the 9th Stitched rectangle
  • I stamped the image in versa Mark ink and sprinkled with Black Embossing powder and heated it
  • I really love using black embossed images but have not done this for ages
  • I just love this swirl design from the Beauty Abounds stamp set.
  • I cut the Basic Black rectangle to make the image pop
    • 1 7/8" x 3 3/4"
  • Add the ribbon under this and wow a very striking card I think
