So Carole gave us a challenge to create only with Black & White - NOTHING ELSE... BIg Grin. So as you may know I recently got a Cricut personal cutting machine and put it through some paces. The lettering on the first 6 was designed by me, scanned, manipulated and then cut with the Cricut, some on double sided tape.

There are 3 that use a hand cut faux stone stencil and colored with a sponging tool and Distress Black Soot.

Well the White Beads image is really for the pits, but nothing I can do about it, It's done on white cardstock, Perfect Pearls - Perfect Pearls powder in the groves and then clear mini beads. I put the white cardstock through the Cuttlebug with the Swiss dots embossing folder.

The next two use Ritz black micro fine glitter and various cool & warm Nuances micro glitter & perfect Pearls. The white cardstock also embossed either with the D'vine Swirls or theCircles & Dots embossing folders and a large faux clear rhinestone on one of them. PS the word spells "White"

The first two use the same design word "Black". The first one is Ritz micro black glitter and cool nuances and a faux rhinestone in each corner.

The second one is various Perfect Pearls and some warm & cool nuances glitter. Both black cardstocks were embossed either with the Swiss Dots or the Circle & Dots folders.

The third one, the word "Beauty" was cut with the Cricut. Punched out the scalloped dot lace border on both sides of a piece of black shiny paper and added the Prima flowers with a black brad. The scalloped rectangles were done with one punch, folding the paper and punching without cutting into the folded area in both a black and a white paper, and then off set.
