Today's color challenge on Splitcoaststampers was to use whisper white, black and river rock --ohhhh!!! I love those colors and so I HAD to play along.
Here is my card:
I stamped the butterflies in river rock and cut them out. Then, I embossed them with clear embossing powder to make them shine (and make them more durable!) The background was embossed with the flower folder in the Cuttlebug. I added a little rhinestone sticker to the sentiment (these stickers can be found at Stamper's Dream .)
Everything is pretty straightforward---I am just happy that I don't have to shred this one!
Materials used: Stamps-Kind Thoughts (Stampin Up!); ink-black, river rock (SU!); cardstock- black, white, river rock (SU!); circle punch (SU!); scalloped circle punch (Marvy Uchida); rhinestone sticker (Hero Arts-available at Stamper's Dream); ribbon (May Arts); eyelet; Cropadile; brads (Paper Studio); paper piercing tool; dimensionals (SU!); clear embossing powder; versamark; heat tool; Cuttlebug and flower folder; pop dots (SU!); corner rounder punch (Creative Memories); slit punch (SU!).
Thanks for stopping by!

LOL! Do you really shred the ones you don't like?? That's hilarious. This card is sooo pretty, please keep it away from the shredder!!!! :-)

Gorgeous card! LOVE!
Very nice! I can't imagine you would need to shred cards you make. Perhaps I need to give you my address!
Very nice card! I can't imagine any of your cards ever qualifying for the shredder.
Beautiful ~ looks like a great (classic) color combo to work with! Awesome job girl!
Stunning card! Those colors are great together!
Wow!!! Stunning!! I definitely need to still do this challenge! What an elegant look with the scallops and the sheer ribbon!! I cannot imagine you making cards that actually deserve to be shredded??!!

Very pretty butterflies! Those are great colors together!

Oh, what a beautiful card! LOVE those colors together. Katie
Beautiful Carolyn!! I can't see you being color challenged. The hard part for me is NOT using decorative paper...and just a few short years ago, I did not even use dp in cards, just my scrapbooks.
This is so beautiful!! I love the color combo! Your popped butterflies, embossing, and rounded corners look so nice with your design!
I love this card, it's beautiful! But I have to say I would be paralyzed by those colors, they are so "sad" to me! That's the great thing in the stamping world, everyone has different colors they love to work with and it makes for a feast of the eye! :-)
SOOOOOOO-LOVE this! I so wanted that set-but could NOT bring myself to fork over the $$.
This card is absolutely beautiful.
I love, love, love what you've done with this week's color challenge and that tres chic butterfly. Just beautiful!
I love this card. I am just about to place a new order and had decided against River Rock. Now I am going to have to reconsider. It looks so good with black.
