Here's my first attempt at this color challenge. I think the chocolate flowers was probably a mistake...? I dunno...something just is not quite right with this and I can't put my finger on it. I will make another one later on, cuz I really do LOVE this combo! Thanks Lindsey! :mrgreen:

This card is phenomenal! Absolutely gorgeous! Everything about it is just beautiful! When I first looked at it, I thought the black layer was a wooden frame with rope detail. The white lines made it look three dimensional and really tricked my eyes. Using the white gel pen to add this detail was a brilliant idea. I will now be ordering a gel pen! Thank you for the idea and thank you so much for sharing your wonderful card.

P.S. I just became a member of SCS and this is my first posting. I wanted to save my first posting for a very deserving card and yours is it.

This is beautiful. The chocolate flowers give this just the contrast it needs to really stand out! Sometimes I find myself hesitating to put that darker color in, but when you take a chance it usually makes a big difference. Awesome card!
