Black and White

A black and white card today. 
I used the Poppystamp 'Side Lattice Cutout' die on a black card blank.  A strip of acetate was placed behind the die cut.  The embossing folder is Couture Creations 'Grand Jo Jo' and I added tiny black pearls over the embossing.  I attached three punched flowers with black pearl centres and used Poppystamp 'Ivy Tendrils' die cuts, cut in half behind the flowers. 

This photo shows the card closed.

I am joining in the following challenges:

    This is very pretty Liz and black and white always looks so crisp and elegant. I love the cut out lattice and the pretty flowers and tendrils and the lattice embossing goes so beautifully. x
