For my card, I'm using some Memory Box paper called Black Tie--appropriate, don't you think? I'm using Mojo Monday Sketch #146 for my layout. I used two patterns of paper for the base, on top of a Basic Black layer, then added some black lace. For the three horizontal elements I did that scrunchy ribbon thing--LOL, I don't know what you call it, so "scrunchy ribbon thing" works for me! I stamped the image, from Verve's One Person set, on a Perfect Paper Panel with Memento Tuxedo Black ink three times. I colored with Copic markers, cut out, and layered the images with Pop Dots, then popped the whole thing up on the large oval element. I stamped the sentiment, from the same set, and punched it out, then attached it a bit lower than the sketch shows to work around my image. Finally, I added some silver flat-backed pearls to the center and as corner accents. I like it--lots of dimension on this card.
