I find challenges can really stimulate my creative juices. This card was inspired by the Black on Black Challenge on the Paper Wishes board.
It was pretty simple, but I would never have done anything like this without the challenge. The front of this card is black card stock with black Scrapbooking Dazzles adhered to it. The bluish sheen was created by taking a shimmery blue dimensional paint, rubbing it very thinly over the background, and then quickly rubbing it off the dazzles. As you can see, I then mounted the whole thing on a light blue card. It looks better in person than in the picture and was a fun thing to try. It could be fun to try a variety of different paints and see what one could come up with.
Please let me hear from you!

Great card Cheryl! I'm so sorry to hear about your grandmother. It's very hard to go though that. I went through that with both my parents and they both died the same year. It's so hard to lose someone you love so much. You and your family are in my thoughts and prayers!
Very cool! I might have to try it!
