CCEE 1425 - White

The CCEE challenge this week is to create a white-on-white card. I pulled out my Tim Holtz Umbrella Man and Bird Branch dies as the basis for my design. I used dimensionals to attach Umbrella Man to the embossed stripes at the bottom of the card. To represent an upturn in fortune, I have it raining flowers which were created with a Martha Stewart punch and embellished with clear crystals. The sentiment is from Words to the Rescue (Encouragement) by Steve Fadie and stamped with Memento Gray Flannel.


Please take the time to visit the rest of the CCEE Designers to see their gorgeous white designs, and I hope you are inspired to play along with week!
