White on White for a Queen


If you hear someone screaming, it's me!!!! I have had so much trouble today with my photo editing software. It has caused me to waste sooooooooo much time.

But, I'm here with my card that I usually make on Fridays. It is for the Queen for the Day on Splitcoaststampers. It is Rita aka scootsv this week and here is the card I cased. I used different dies mostly for the change. I love white on white and just had to make one.

I hope everyone has a great weekend. Should be 74 degrees and sunshine here in AL tomorrow. I've called someone to help with getting my lawn and flower beds in order. I'm going to let him clean out the beds and put down new pine needles and bark while hubby and I tend to other parts of the yard. Hope to get it in shape early this Spring. I'm hoping with someone else doing the beds I won't get allergies. Fat chance!!

Recipe:
Paper-PTI white cardstock
Accessories-Spellbinders Fancy Lattice and Fantastic Flourish Three dies, lg white pearl, Star Dust Stickles, Sizzix Bigz die/flowers 3D

Seriously, this card is just gorgeous, and I love the white on white! I bought a lattice die like the one you used and have never been able to get it to cut right, but yours is beautiful! I love that flower with the pearl inside!
Enjoy your gardening weekend!

This card is stunningly beautiful. I love white on white and that flower with the pearl is the perfect final touch. Pretty, pretty die also. I hope you manage to get a lot done in the yard this weekend. Good luck with the allergies. I'm glad you are having great weather, but here in Ma. our temperature right now is 22 degrees. I can't wait to get out in the yard to get it cleaned up. Enjoy your weekend.

A real stunner here, Brenda! Wow, love it!

Woo hoo...I'm enjoying this gorgeous AL weather! Good luck getting your yard in shape and not getting allergies. I think you just have step outside and you'll start sneezing.

Davi said...

Wow Brenda is that Gorgeous!! All the white is so elegant and the beautiful medallion focal point is amazing! Hope your allergies dont kick up too badly. With it being in the 90s here everything is in bloom and way tooo much pollen.

Love your white on white Benzi, these are some gorgeous dies you used.
I am glad it is warm where you are, here the heat is still kicking on :)

I never can photograph white cards! I scream and scream and then editing....ugh! I hate the behind the scenes stuff, blogging, editing because it takes so much time and I just want to play with paper! HA!

Your card is gorgeous and you captured it's beauty! Love the beautiful white rose and pearl in the center. Enjoy your warm weather!

Bonnie said...

I wondered who it was that I heard yelling, Benzi! It was worth the trouble though as it's GORGEOUS! We had someone do our beds too. What a relief. It would have taken us???

Carmen S. said...

Hallo Benzi,
Das ist wirklich eine Königliche Karte in Weiß, sehr elegant. Alle die Ausstanzungen hast Du ganz wunderbar auf die Karte gebracht.

Liebe Grüße-Carmen

Absolutely stunning, Benzi!

BENZ, you have outdone yourself on this one. I have got to try white on white eventually. The different layers are to die for and all tlhe embossing and diecuts - YUMMO! You are my hero. Yep, photo software problems are a pain - my last card showed up okay, but the b/g is pinkish - where did that come from? Will have to fix it in my spare time - LOL! White on white is hard to photograph, but yours looks great!

Colleen Dietrich said...

Just spectacular! I know how troublesome computer issues can be. Having one currently myself...and it's complicated to explain. Just want it to be fixed!

Irene said...

Und deine Karte ganz in weiss ist einfach traumhaft schön.

LG Irene CH

This is soooo pretty! Love the white on white and that beautiful flower in the middle. This is wonderful and special in every way. The weather last weekend was wonderful here too. We had Crystal's shower in an old plantation house and they left the doors open - it was wonderful and fresh. I know how you love to play in the dirt so I am sure you are getting very happy Spring is here now. Hugz!
