OLW 155 - SILHOUETTE


I made this card for One Layer Wednesday and the subject was silhouettes.  I just purchased this new stamp and this was the perfect time to use it.  Karen's water-colored silhouette cards are very inspiring.  In reading the design team's blogs Linda's directions made it easy for me and allowed me to use some old SU! stamp pads.
I cut a mask using Nestabilities Curved Rectangle and placed it over Whisper White cardstock.  First I stamped Buckaroo Blue ink on the bottom of the masked portion of the card and then I used Soft Sky.  The bridge was stamped in Versafine and heat embossed.  The verbiage was stamped and heat embossed after the mask was removed.

Paper - SU! Whisper White
Ink - SU! Buckaroo Blue, Soft Sky and Versafine
Die - Stampabilities Curved Rectangles (for masking)
Stamps - Art Impressions (bridge), SU! (verbiage
