Fabulous in Black and White: Stampin' Up! Flowering Flourishes

There is something about that Black and White combo that makes stuff look so classy.  In fact, 75% of my wardrobe is B&W.  A few months back I even had a "Black and White Stamping Class" where every card was made with the B&W combo.  I love the way this card turned out... fabulous.  Hope this inspires you.
