Lots of Black

Fresh Brewed Designs has a new challenge! Lots of Black for Black Friday.
Here's my card: Is it too early for a New Year's card? =)   Of course she's celebrating with coffee.

I think this will be one of my favorite, favorite stamps!  I can't believe I haven't used it before.  You'll be seeing more cards with this image, that's for sure.  I stamped the image on glitter paper and then paper pieced the dress...it really does look better in person.  I love how the scallop borders turned out...I used Purple Cows' Solstice punch and punched each scallop. Don't forget you can get 20% off your use code MERRYMOO2011
 The flowers are from Joann's ribbon by the yard.  The black shimmer ribbon is from Michael's  The swirl embellishments are from Recollections.  The sentiment is from Studio G.
