Paint it Black

Having just posted one song-inspired card for the Allsorts Inspired by a Song Challenge,  here I am with another, rather off-the-wall one.  You can blame my Facebook friends for this - they dared me to make it!

The other night I was thinking about what to make for the challenge as I drifted off to sleep  - and woke up next morning with an earworm of the Rolling Stones song "Paint it black". So I jokingly posted on Facebook my idea of making an all-black card, and several of my crafting friends dared me to go ahead, so here it is:

 
I used Versamark ink and clear embossing powder for the sentiment, so it really is just a shiny version of the same shade of black as the inside.

 
But open the card and....
 

I covered the left inner panel with white card to give the sender somewhere to write.

Well done for getting black embossing to show on black card - love the riot of colour inside. I think the song choice could have meant this card being so much darker!
Thanks for sharing with us at Allsorts challenge.
