Hello bloggers, I am back again with a card that I made two weeks ago... I used these multi stamps from Prima - clear stamps that I placed randomly on a big block and stamped it with black pigment ink. I have been seeing a lot of black and white cards and it was finally Lynn of http://creativecraftsbylynn.blogspot.com/ whose card inspired me to get down to making one. The sentiment is handwritten (thanks to the encouragement I have received from all of you, I seem to be getting more confident with writing my sentiments) and the ribbons are from my stash. The faux gem flowers are from Paper Mania. I have snail mailed this card for a very special blogging buddy (sorry, cannot disclose the name as it meant to be a surprise)... pity it has still not reached her. It is going to be two weeks tomorrow since I mailed it. Sob, sob! Hopefully one day, it will arrive at it's destination. Hope you like it. Hugs and thanks for viewing, Monica |

Wow, what a lovely card, Monica; so pretty - the black and white with a hint of red; always a perfect combination. I just love those swirls and the flowers - very nicely done! I know the recipient will love it. You know it's really a miracle the postal system that works worldwide; sometimes it takes a bit but I always hope it gets there, don't you? :-)
And....it's BEAUTIFUL!!! Thanks for the "shout out" but you needed no inspiration from me Monica...All your cards are so lovely and this one is outstanding! I DO love the black and white with that touch of red. Such a classy looking card.

It's unanimous, we all love that color combination, it has such an elegant look. I'm sure your recipient will love it.
Hello Monica. WOW, what a stunning card, and I just love that colour combination. The swirls make it very classy and I bet it has added texture too. Your handwriting is gorgeous, dont be hard on yourself. The design is fabulous, and you are growing in confidence all the time. I love it sweetie. Happy crafting.

I love the random swirls as the background .
I think your hand written sentiments are really your personal touch to your cards ...keep it up please .
That is a shame that the mail takes so long for your friend to receive her lovely card from you. But when it gets there it will be sure to place a smile on her face!
