Challenge #98 - "All white on the night!"

Before we begin, apologies for not announcing our DT winners and the slight hic cups with the post last week but unfortunately Lou had to dash to Ireland for a family emergency and that put a spanner in the works (as it were) as everyone on the DT is part of our decision process. Successful applicants will be contacted very soon and once they reply, we will announce their names on here. Many thanks for all your patience.

Okay . . . thank you for joining in with our transport theme last week and great to see how everyone interpreted the theme in different ways.

Now the theme this week is . . .

"it's all white on the night!"


We would like you to make yor project using white as your main focal colour and then using one other accent colour only. We appreciate that for some images, just using one colour maybe hard, so therefore on images, we do not mind if you have to use a few more colours as long as it is not every single colour you own! here's how the DT interpretated the theme:
