Clean And Simple B/W Card

     The challenge over at CAS-ual Fridays this week to create and clean and simple card (as always) using only black and white.
     When I first read the challenge I thought it would be easy. I mean, come on, they already picked the style and colors I was going to use how hard could it be?!? Well my friends, this was INCREDIBLY difficult for me. The card I ended up with is my third attempt. The first two are horrible memories I never wish to relive.
Recipe:
Echo Park Victoria's Garden
Recollections Cardstock
Michael's Ribbon
Inkadinkadoo Stamps
Color Box Alabaster Chalk Ink

Additional Challenges:
Birthday Sundaes - Challenge #40

Sorry to hear about the problems you had with your first attempts, but this sure is pretty. I love the stacked ribbon look.

Sometimes we get a vision and it gives us such grief but I want to tell you this card is definitely worth all the aggravation! Love the black and white and the pretty ruffled ribbon.
Thanks for sharing! :)
