Negative image

This is one of my first attempts at a positive/negative image card. It is just a matter of stamping in a dark colour on light cardstock and in the light colour on the dark cardstock. You need to stamp either a large image twice and cut it in half or stamp a design with a common element in the middle as I have done here.
Supplies:
Stamps: Time Well Spent
Inks: Chocolate Chip, Versamark
Cardstock: Whisper White, Chocolate Chip, Soft Sky
Also: Organza ribbon
