P retty black and white card using Stampin' Up! products.

|
Cut cardstock, designer paper, and Foil Sheets pieces to the following sizes using a Stampin' Trimmer:
- card from Whisper White Thick Cardstock at 5-1/2" x 8-1/2" and scored at 4-1/4"
- 4" x 5-1/4" from Basic Black Cardstock
- 2-3/4" x 4" of small white butterflies and swirls on black background design from Botanical Butterfly Designer Series Paper, cut so the butterflies are horizontal
- 3-1/4" square from Silver Foil Sheets
- 2-1/2" x 3-1/4" from Whisper White Cardstock
Adhere the piece of Botanical Butterfly Designer Series Paper to the bottom of the Basic Black rectangle.
Cut a 4-1/2" piece of the Black 3/8" Glittered Organdy Ribbon.
Lay the ribbon across the black/designer paper rectangle so it covers the seam between the two layers. Flip the rectangle over and fold the ends of the ribbon over. Adhere the ends of the ribbon in place with pieces of Tear & Tape Adhesive.
Remove the protective backing from the Tear & Tape strips and add SNAIL to the back of the black rectangle. Adhere it to the front of the Whisper White Thick Card.
Pick out the largest, open, filigree-edged, circle thinlit from the Eastern Medallions Thinlits and the smooth, circle framelit from the Layering Circles Framelits that cuts out a 2-15/16" diameter circle. Place the Silver Foil Sheets square on the Precision Base Plate on top of the Platform on the Big Shot. Place the filigree-edged, circle thinlit on top. Place the circle framelit on top so it is centered around the filigree-edged, circle thinlit. Place a Cutting Pad on top and run through the Big Shot a couple of times. Use the Die Brush or Paper-Piercing Tool to remove the pieces.
Mount the "You are pretty much the best ever" sentiment from the All Adorned Set on Block C. Ink it up with the Memento Ink Pad. Stamp it near one end of the strip of white cardstock, leaving room to punch it out.
Unlock the 2" Circle Punch. Holding the punch upside down so you can see the punching area, slide the stamped sentiment into the punch and get it centered in the punching area. Punch.
Use pieces of Tear & Tape Adhesive on the back of the sentiment circle punch out to adhere it to the center of the silver foil medallion cut out.
Use Stampin' Dimensionals to adhere the sentiment circle medallion cut out to the front of the card so it is centered side to side and about 1/2" from the top.
Cut a 4" piece of the Black 3/8" Glittered Organdy Ribbon.
Tie a half knot in the center. Trim the ends.
Use a Mini Glue Dot to adhere the ribbon knot at a slight angle to the card front on the lower right side of the white sentiment circle.
