A fun inspiration challenge today with loads of inspiration. When I saw these nails, I immediately thought of this new stencil, which I love.
I first die cut the black cardstock with the stitched rectangle for nice clean edges. I then embossed the stencil with embossing paste on black cardstock and while it was drying in my Misti I stamped the sentiments in the black and red inks, then die cut accordingly. Once the stencil was dry I glued it to fun foam and attached it to my card base. I attached the label die and the you, which is attached on foam dots. To finish I added the Viva drops.
Thank you for having a look ... aplaceforkia

Oh, wow! I think black and white cards are so striking! You were able to get a fabulous bright white from your paste! I love the red dots for just a little bit of color contrast. Amazing!

That is a gorgeous stencil and you did a fantastic job getting a crisp clean paste impression from it! I am impressed! The black, white and red are always a great color combination! So classy looking, always!

Fabulous card using the inspiration photo - you really "nailed" it *tehe* Seriously, I love the bold contrast of black and red, and the sweetness of floral background - all compliment one another so well.
