Black, White and Red

To all of you who have been following my blog (and may I say Thank You, I think it is a great honour especially as I am fairly new to this Blogging business, I started it only a month ago) You will be aware that my favorite colour combo is Black and Red so when I heard that the 365 cards http://365cards.blogspot.com/ challenge for the day is Black White and Red I had to give it a go.
I have used a stamp from Creative Expressions, have stamped it twice and have coloured with colour pencils and whisper pens, and the dress has been stamped on patterned paper and then all pieced together. Its a fairly simple card, however sometimes I do think less is more. However think I may have gone a little mad with the polka dots! Also in real life the red is a lot less orangy! but I had to take this photo at night so I could enter it into the challenge.
