Silhouette with sentiments


Vicky's Challenge today on CCEE Stampers is to use a Silhouette with a sentiment on the front. Now I had to really search for my silhouette stamps, it has been that long since I have used one.


For my main image I used an old wood mounted Penny Black daisy stamp, it was one of my first Penny Black stamps and I see now that you can purchase the coordinating die for it. All my inks are Ranger Distressed inks. The sentiment is from KaiserCraft and the mesh in the background is a clear unmounted of unknown origin.

Cheers

  6. I like that mesh background "of unknown origin" and the way you used it diagonally that way. And your silhouettes are pretty in color.

  9. I've noticed the die too - but I think I'll stick with just the stamp. It's a long-time favourite of mine, and I'm so glad that it was in your collection for you to use as your silhouette today. I nearly used it! I love the warmth of your colours with the bold sentiment for contrast.
