a black & white Christmas

Gosh I really dont seem to have had much crafting time recently and feel really behind, but last night I did get the time to put this card together.  I have used a stamp by Sheena Douglas from the Bah! Humbug! 1 set which I won earlier this year but have not inked up until last night.  I inked it with white pigment ink and then heat embossed with clear powder.  When I stamped it I wasn't sure how it would look and its not my usual style but I really like it.  I kept the rest of the card very simple just adding some white organza ribbon and punch some little snowflakes in the corner of the black mat as I wanted the image to stand out.  I really do like the way this turned out and may well be making some more like this!



I would like to enter this card into the following challenges:
Cupcake Crafts #162 ~ Black & White Christmas
