Cup of Tea with a gift

Simple and Effective - Black and white with just a tad of red.  There is something elegant about that colour combination!

I have used a white card blank and added a strip of black across the centre.  The white grosgrain ribbon is from American Crafts.  The image is from Milk Coffee and is coloured with copic markers.  I used a white gel pen to go over the swirl in the part of the cup I coloured black.  I also added a sentiment from Paper Smooches and three black pearls.
