Scrappy Stamps & Ink: Inspire. Create. Share. Blog Hop

Wednesday, August 6, 2014

Welcome to the August edition of the Inspire. Create. Share. Blog hop! This month we have a Black and White theme going. This theme is so far out of my comfort zone - I wasn't sure I could do it. We also used this theme for our swap at Stampin' Up!'s annual convention in Salt Lake City a few weeks ago. I must say - it was easier than I thought, and the cards were all amazing!

Here is a group photo taken at convention of about half of our ICS Blog Hop Group. From Left to Right we have: Darla, Jen, Olivia, Tina, Eva, Deb, and that's me on the far right. For my swap card, I really wanted to use the new Typeset Specialty Designer Series Paper, so my card ended up being Basic Black and Very Vanilla. For the blog hop though, I wanted to go with Basic Black and Whisper White, so I made a new card.

Here is my card for this month:

I love the simplicity of this card. I feel like it is dressed up enough for a wedding, but still simple.

I hope you enjoyed my card - and that it will inspire you to make a card of your own. Next up on the hop is Deb Naylor. She always has something great to share! Be sure to go and see what she has this month!
