A very interesting choice of colours and subject matter (if you choose to go down that path). After initially having NO inspiring thoughts, afew struck me - the gravestone thing or an attempt at my usual sort of card but in these, er, very different colours. Please keep testing us like this Cath. I'm not sure who I would give either to but it would have to be someone with a slightly twisted sense of humour (actually I know afew people who fit that description).
This is the card I have chosen to enter in the challenge. I toyed with the idea of doing a Mortitia Addams and chop the heads off the roses but that is probably altogether too weird (must be the Stieg Larsson books I am reading), I couldn't bring myself to do that.
My husband prefers this card, possibly slightly less odd and possibly room to add alittle colour .... but I won't.

I like both of your cards, Cassandra! Great for this challenge ... have to agree with the NON-inspiration photo though. I made a similar looking card for my friend when she turned 50 (black roses, black lace, black & white images) but, you are right, there are NOT a lot of people with THIS 'dark' sense of humor :o)
ReplyDeleteOoo I say Cassandra! How on earth did you make such stunning cards from such an uninspiring photo!! I actually think they'd make brilliant Sympathy cards. Love your sense of humour! xx
ReplyDeletelove your take!
ReplyDeleteVery clever!!!!!!
ReplyDeleteWhat a great result from such a dull photo, well done they are both lovely
