Today I am sharing this simple Black and White Jar of Flowers Card with a hint of silver bling. Remember, not all floral images need to be coloured!
I created this card with simply Black, White and Silver. Images stamped in Black Ink on Whisper White cardstock do achieve a stunning result!
Layers for my card:
- Card base: Whisper White card stock (10.5cm x 29.8cm)
- First layer: Silver Foil Sheets (7.7cm x 10cm)
- Second layer: Basic Black card stock (6.5cm x 12.7cm)
- Third layer: Whisper White card stock (5.5cm x 11.8cm)
- Sentiment: Basic Black (1.0cm x 2.8cm)
Stamping and Accessories:
- I stamped the images on the Whisper White card stock in Memento Black Ink. The stamps in the Jar of Flowers Stamp Set are Photopolymer which means they are see-though. This feature helps with perfect positioning of the flowers above the rim of the jar. Great stamping everytime!
- The front of my card is a rough embossed pattern because I ran it though my Cut and Emboss Machine in the Tasteful Textures 3D Embossing Folder.
- I've used the ‘HELLO' sentiment from the Blossoms in Bloom Stamp Set because during COVID-19 restrictions I have needed many generic cards to send out to friends and family as ‘happy mail'. I stamped the ‘HELLO' in Craft Stampin' Ink (Whisper White pigment) on Basic Black cardstock hence continuing my ‘Black and White theme'.
Stamping and Accessories:
- I adhered the three layers (Silver Foil, Basic Black and Whisper White) using Multipurpose Liquid Glue and propped up the ‘HELLO' sentiment on Dimensionals to give it added height
- I placed 3 Rhinestone Basic Jewels in the centres' of the three main flowers in the image therefore adding a little bling to my card.

Ever decorated the inside of your card? My cards are not complete until the inside has been decorated. I don't think it needs to be too elaborate just a simple stamped image. In this card I've stamped the flowers from the front again in the centre.
