Our Twisted Sister Challenge was to make a card with silhouttes...I made this card after my first one, when I didn't realise I had a silhoutte stamp....so here is my official card...complete with silhoutte, which was given to me by a lovely lady Kelly who I met at the first Markets I ever took my cards to, it was one of many in a box of stamps that she had packed away.
I used Swiss Dots EF for the background and layered the image on gold paper, which doesn't sparkle in the photo like it does iRL....I kept it simple and let the image be the feature, finidhing it off with gold brads...I really like a touch of gold with the black!! Now that I have said that I am not sure if it had to strictly be black and white 0 if that is the case....OOOOPPPPPPSSS!!
Thanks for looking, I enjoy your comments, they are always so encouraging!
Thanks for looking.....

Woweewowow!!! You have just succeeded in making me feel really inferior!!! I've been putting off this black & white card because nothing comes to mind and you go and do two!!!! Sista, this is awesome! I agree with you Gold is the perfect accent. And you said you were worried about breaking the rules.......what rules?? Sistas don't follow rules.....what were you thinking????

Augh aw, another little Cheetah, sister. Love your card. The gold really sets it off. A great image, too. Maybe since I was gone and didn't get to upload mine, I can pretend that I thought the black and white had to have color with it after seeing all the ones that do. Would you call me a Cheetah, too?
