CFC60 - Thank you

Happy Friday!  Today I'm back with this week's challenge at CAS-ual Fridays:

CFC60: Text me

Use text in your clean and simple project

And this week's sponsor is the fabulous Simon Says Stamp:

Not only will the winner of this challenge receive a $25 gift certificate to spend at Simon Says Stamp, she will also win a guest designer spot at the CAS-ual Fridays blog!  For this week's challenge, I wanted to use text in a way I hadn't before.  I had a couple ideas in my head, and finally decided on this paper yummy:

I applied a white flower rub-on to a panel of black cardstock.  Then I colored over the rub-on using Prismacolor pencils.  I wanted to stamp my text onto the black panel, but really only have it show up against the rub-on.  So I used black Staz-on ink, and it still shows up, ever so slightly, against the black.  I really like the way it looks!  And I was able to position the flower just where I wanted on the stamp so that the "thank you" would show up.  Here's a close-up of the black-on-black stamping:

I finished off the card with a simple strip of ribbon, some stitching, a glittery brad, and some rounded corners.  I hope you'll play along with this week's challenge.  You have until next Thursday at noon EST to do so.  We'd love to have you!

Thanks for looking!
