Winter White


'Winter White', is  this weeks Challenge over at Sugar Creek Hollow.
We would like to see a card all in white, only the focal image can have some colour.
Please pop over and see what we have been making and get the details. Remember our style is vintage/shabby chic.

As you can see I made  a card with a focal  sentiment in black.
 This was a gift from Cec  to all of us on her DT at SCH..
The words are-
A friend is one that knows you as you are,
understands where you have been,
accepts what you have become and gently allows you to grow.
                                                   William Shakespeare

The layers used are Spellbinders die cut Labels 6 and the Fancy Lattice  die cut.
A dry embossed word layer.
The flowers swirls and leaves are also spellbinders, the Positively Me set.
Lace and pearls from my stash.

I will also enter -
Challenge 51 at the Cheerful Stamp Pad - White as Snow.

Thank you all for stopping by, your comments are always appreciated.
