This is my card for the challenge today using Penny Black Products.

To make this card, I started with sponging the white card panel with Picked Raspberry, Festive Berries, Ripe Persimmon and Abandoned Coral distress inks. Then I die cut a white panel using The Garden die from penny Black  which I layered on the sponged card panel using foam adhesive. I love the colours peeking out of the die cut. This panel is adhered to card front.

The sentiment is from Penny Black You and Me stamp set which I white heat embossed on the black cardstock and adhered on the card front with bunched up silver thread. Quick and simple card but the colours and contrast makes a huge impact.

    That big die really makes a gorgeous statement, Gayatri, and your red and white with the touch of black is stunning!
