I love the drama in Marlease's card thanks to the black background with pops of bold colour!
I used two Floral Lace products - the layering stencils, and the die to create this look - I stenciled bright colours onto white cardstock, then glued the black outline die over top. I coloured the 'in between' spaces with either black or green. Then the whole thing felt a little dark, so I created the white flower centres with one of my all time favourite, basic cover plates.
I finished with a stacked up die cut from Paper Rose.

What a fun, bright, modern take on the inspiration card. Love the bright colors against the black. Usually I would say that is "elegant" but in this case it just looks fun with those darling blossoms. I think adding the white centers really cements this design as "Fabulous". Fav'd.
Ardyth, this is a beautiful case of Marlease's card. I love all the shades of bright pink you used for your flower petals and especially the touches of yellow pieces in the center of the card. This is so creative.

This is such a great case of Marlease's pretty card and dramatic like hers as well but in a totally different way. Love the pops of lime green against the shades of pink and that bold H.B. works perfectly!
