Black & White Album...

 Hello,

Sharing one of my albums with you today. Using a pre-purchased black and white covered album, I have inserted a selection of black and white papers from various brands into the album pages.

A strip of silver ribbon across the top of each page adds a touch of elegancy.

Silver stickers in each corner and pearls/rhinestones added to the centres of the flowers complete the front cover.

This would make a lovely Wedding or Engagement album.

Thanks for visiting!

White card was blended with blue and purple Distress inks, and the mountain scene was then stamped with Versamark ink and white embossed.  The sentiment was also stamped and white embossed. this panel was layered on to white card and then on to the dark blue base card. The canoe was stamped on to white card, coloured, fussy cut and mounted on top. White gel pen was used to highlight the water.

The background for this z fold card was stamped on to white card trimmed to fit the base panels of the card. These panels and the front strip panel were coloured with watercolour pencils and the colours blended using a wet wipe. The sentiment, a hiker and the dog were stamped on to the front strip and the panels all attached to the card base. The canoe, a hiker and three trees were stamped on to white card, coloured, fussy cut and mounted on the card. Gems were added to finish, and some hand drawn birds added.
