A Sassy White Creation!

I've seen some gorgeous all white creations lately and wanted to try it for myself. I really love the look and tried to add texture using embossing. I wanted to use a b/w image so I added colour with the ribbon, buttons and pearl sprays. I love the effect but it was hard to photograph. I tried a heap of variations and this is the best I could come up with. What do you think?


Challenges I'm joining:
Lets Ink It Up - "Think Pink"
Bizzy Becs Store Blog Challenge - "Girls and Pearls"
Sentimental Sundays Challenge - "Anything Goes"
Card Recipe
Stamps :  Hippie Chick (Sugar Nellie), digi ticket stubs (Bizzy Becs)
Cardstock: Whisper White (Stampin' Up!)
Inks:    tuxedo black (memento)
Coloured with:  Copics (cool grey's)
Other :  ribbon (Stampin' Up!), embossing folders (cuttlebug), buttons, pearl sprays (stash)

Simply Sassy Guest DT Call!

There is currently a Guest DT call over at Simply Sassy (see here). Well actually the call went out 2 weeks ago and I just received my stamps in the mail (seemed to take forever to get to Australia) - so I've been busy this evening with only 6 hours to spare. I just love these images - very girly. I first saw them on the blog of the gorgeous and amazing Kellie (see blog here) a month or so ago and had to get some for myself! Unfortunately I couldnt use natural light for the photo but I will try to update it tomorrow.
I love to colour in black and white and I next I'd like to use some of these images in my scrapbooking.
