Whoopsi Daisy White on White

I want to emphasise that this is a White on White card and I fulfilled the challenge by using only white cards and papers. Had I used any cream card or paper I would have felt that I had not met the challenge. Just in response to some of the very nice comments already made on this card. 
This week's challenge over at Whoopsi Daisy is White on White. This is the first time I've made a WOW card so it WAS a challenge but I enjoyed it. I didn't realise there were so many shades of white!!

I used a small card blank by Craft UK. I embossed more white card using two Cuttlebug folders, the well known Swiss Dots and a floral one - but I've forgotten the name of that one. I used a Spellbinders die to cut the fancy strip that covered the join of the embossing and then I matted the embossed card to white pearlescent card. I used one of the images from sheet 355, available here, and coloured her with a Sakura white Souffle pen and Promarkers. A Spellbinders oval nestie was used to cut the image and then that was matted on to the scalloped nestie. A pearl brad brad from Wild Orchid Crafts was added to two corners and a small LOTV sentiment completed the design. 

I'm entering this card in to the following challenges:

  21. Hi Hazel ! This is such a cute card, and I love that you went with a cream instead of the obvious pink choice, WOW card or not. Really enjoyed having you join along with us for our anniversary at Papercraft Star !!
