Tuesday Taggers is really special this week as my good friend Irene is their guest designer so naturally I just had to join in. Check out Irene's fantastic project here - isn't that just a fabulous set?
The challenge is use black and white, which is one of my favourite schemes as it's so easy to do and usually ends up as quite classy work. For the basic layout of my card I decided to use the sketch at Sketch Saturday and make an anytime card. I seem to need these quite often both as 'thank you' cards and little cards to put in with 'cheer up' gifts and RAKS.
I've purposely kept the card very flat - no bulky flowers or foam pads. It really hurt doing that as I love dimension, but hey the charges at the post office are killing and they are set to rise again in April so needs must.
The silhouette image is from my new Silhouette CD by Debbie Moore. I actually printed a whole sheet of these images and I'm half contemplating making a set on notelets with them - we'll see. I rather like the idea of making a folder to match too. Watch this space!!
As I've used new stash my card is perfect for the challenges at...
- Rainbow Lady's Challenge Blog - New stuff
- Crafty Ann's - New inspiration or goodies
Have a fantastic day everyone - oh it's so good to be able to craft again after last week. Thank goodness whatever was wrong seems to have settled down - let's hope it stays that way.

Just gorgeous Ann, love this colour palette, so elegant.
Thanks for joining in with CACB.
Really elegant card Ann. I love black and white too. I didn't know the postage was going up again. It's a conspiracy against us cardmakers I think. Glad you're OK now.
