Black on Black

Yep, all about the black this week over at Delicious Doodles. So many challenges call for white on white, in fact we had such a challenge a few weeks ago, we've decided to really challenge you. To see how black you can go, hehe. There are so many colour "blacks", it shouldn't be too hard. Textures of course have their unique way of adding the colour variation as well. Let's see what you make of this.....

My gatefold card employs diecuts, from different types of card as well as texture.
So here we have it. I have used Teri's new and Delicious "Angel of Death" image.

There is here, a plain black card base with crackle embossed pearlised card attached.

That diecut gate and fence has been cut from glossy black card (yes it opens).

The tree behind has been cut from two different black card stock in stash. Also the little tags with my hand written sentiment, written with white gel pen and attached with black brads. The silver bat was given a lick of black alcohol ink from my promarker.

The sentiment - well that's my little attempt at humour.

and fully open you can see the third tag. Those inside panels have been covered with a leather type textured paper.

A sentiment on another die cut and a square to write a message on.
The flowers are home made from lace. Black, of course, with a stick pin that had some extra black beads added by me together with the little charms.

You can see some of the dimension I added to this gorgeous image here.

In more detail...........
