White Christmas card

 I have a problem and I'm hoping you can help... I love colour, I use it all the time but I have a secret desire to create using just white! So no colour 😱 Now I've tried before and often dream about how to accomplish this but it's a work in progress.  Do you have the same problem? Do you try to create with no colour? 

Here's a fairly simple white Christmas card. White is perfect for winter cards don't you think? As always when working with white you have to consider texture because how else are you going to create interest on your card? Another thing to consider when working with no colour is depth. Layers help create that all important interest on your card. 

So here it is...

The texture on the front is created using the fantastic Forever plaid 3d embossing folder. The parcels , swag and stars are all die cut  using the the Christmas Friends dies as is the circle appature,  such a useful set!

The stars, bow and parcel ribbon are all die cut using the oh so beautiful white glimmer paper from a mixed pack of Pink, green and white glimmer paper. Using glimmer or glitter is another great way to add a little something something to your all white no colour card.
But how do you add a sentiment 🤔 . Well the technique  used for this card is to heat emboss using silver embossing powder.  I'm not sure it really counts as an all white or no colour card now though 🫣
What do you think? Do you have any suggestions?  If you do please share as I continue my search for the perfect no colour card.
