Black, White add one!!

Hi everyone! 
We have a new topic at Try It On Tuesday - we are asking you to use 'Black and White plus one other colour'
Please take a look at the different ways the Design Team have interpreted this theme here.

 I decided on a quick make and made a card that I hope will lift someone's spirits during these awful Covid-19 times.

I stamped some text using white paint onto black card. The larger 'Believe' was trickier as it wasn't very well defined so I outlined with a white pen.
I turned to my box of die cuts for the flowers - the two white ones are by Memory Box, the green one is from a Tim Holtz set.

 Finally, before mounting the black card onto a white card I added some white paint spatters.

 I hope you will be joining us this time - the challenge is open for two weeks.
You have the chance to be one of our Top 5 (and also a possibility of being asked to Guest Design for us)

 Take care and Thank you for looking, Chris

    Love the idea of using the flowers that way, Chris. That pop against black is always much more striking than on white, but the mixed colour flowers add to the interest. Lovely card :-)
