I saw a card this week that caught my eye, and I can't remember exactly where I saw it!  What stood out was the color combination, and I thought, "I should try that".  So please try it with me!  Just to make it a little extra challenging, please use embossing on your card, a little or a lot, heat embossing or dry embossing. 

Challenge Requirements : 1.  Make a card or project using ONLY the colors black, white and yellow.
                                         2.  You must use embossing, heat (embossing powder) or dry (embossing folders, or using a stylus, etc)
                                         3.  You can stamp a sentiment but you must stamp something else in addition, for example an image or background.
                                         4.  Upload your project to the WF17 gallery with the key word WF17BYW

ETA : Combining with other challenges is allowed.

I will draw the name of a participant (one entry per project) for a small RAK, probably from my stash if I can part with something  :-\, haha!  What to send, what to send??

Tip :  Search Pinterest using "black yellow and white card" .  There is a lot of inspiration out there.  If you don't use Pinterest you could probably google the same words, or check Instagram.

Thanks for playing along!

Hmm, I don't know if I've every used this color combo.  I know I've done yellow and grey.  But I bet this is a rather striking color combo. 

Can we combo?

Here is my card for the challenge : http://www.duhnproductions.com/Pics/displayimage.php?album=lastup&cat=0&pid=3150#top_display_media

I had a hard time getting a good stamp of this, and the embossing looks all bubbly, does that mean my embossing powder has gone bad?

Disappointed in the shine that reflects off the heat embossing. 

Very beautiful colour combination.  Thanks for the challenge.

I'm glad you're liking this color combination.  I thought it was striking! 

I love your cards Connie and Beth!  You both got heat and dry embossing on your cards, not necessary for the challenge but it looks great!

Beth, your cover-up flower worked out really well.  I like it there!

Connie, I don't know ... can embossing powder go bad?  Does anyone know?  I have some pretty ancient powder ... I haven't had a problem that I can remember, but then again I guess it's ancient because I don't use it enough.

Thanks for playing Connie and Beth.  I look forward to seeing more yellow, black and white cards ... and I still need to make one myself!

I have had an embossing powder go bad and it wasn't even that old. I wondered if I had contaminated it or something.

Yes, embossing powder can go bad. I have had some that just wouldn't melt or shine after awhile. Sometimes the ep stinks even though it works well. Not sure why. Then I have had others that work well after many years. I think it has to do with the ingredients in it from the factory.

Cindi, I was posting my card onto my blog and realized it goes with this color scheme, but I made it before we started winterfest, so you don't have to count it, just thought I would share :
