Masculine cards can sometimes leave you at a loss for ideas. These new silhouette dies are perfect and so easy to build a scenic card using them. The background is color blended then the scene added on top and finally the silhouette fisherman. Sure to impress the men in your life.
For the Inspiration Challenge IC1016, we are visiting Cotton & Crete and their Pinterest Board. The cover of THIS book was my inspiration.
To make my card, I started with white panel cut just about 1/4″ smaller than a standard 4.25 x 5.50 card front. I used the inks & blending brushes to color it, roughly mapping in where I wanted the colors to change. After putting it into the Misti, I stamped the silhouette grasses at the very bottom & the silhouette trees at the top where the color changed from blue to sunrise/sunset colors. To add a little more interest, I die cut the center w/ rectangle die & edged it w/ a black marker. A slightly larger white deckle layer was added to a thin black mat & attached behind the center scene, then attached back on top of the rest of the scene. A narrow black mat was added underneath it before attaching to the card. The greeting was stamped & the fisherman silhouette added.
Thanks so much for stopping by!
