PTI’s January 2013 Blog Hop

by cbaptista on 01/25/2013

This month’s Blog Hop theme over at Nichole Heady’s blog is black backgrounds.  I made this card last week for the MIM #100 challenge and I loved how it turned out.  In thinking about what to create for the blog hop, I kept thinking about this card and wondering how it would look with a black background.  Wonder no more…this is how it turned out:

I love this card too.  It’s crazy what a difference a mere change in background color makes!

Here is the other card for comparison:

This was a fun and neat little experiment.  Love both looks!

Thanks for stopping by!

    Love the pop of red at the bottom and the top of both cards. It just catches the eye. So very elegant!
