Secret Crafter Saturday Challenge - Black & White

Please scroll down for my Penny Black Saturday Challenge DT post.

**************************************

 This week's Secret Crafter Saturday Challenge has been chosen by Kelly, and it's another colour theme:

'Black & White'
NO other colours allowed!'

I'm always a bit scared of B&W cards...I always worry they're going to turn out looking like a sympathy card! The image I used is from the 'Art Deco' set by Woodware, and I simply paired it with some Cuttlebugged 'Swiss Dots'. The spotty ribbon is from Hobbycraft, and the black pearls are from Wild Orchid Crafts. The sentiment was cut using one of the dies from my Cuttlebug 'Olivia' alphabet.


I'm also entering this card into the following challenges:
