Best Friend

Good Morning All and a very Happy Tuesday!

I'm really enjoying playing with the new Singles Stamps from Creative Expressions.  I've always loved silhouette stamps because you can do so much with the background.

So, without further ado, let's get started on this weeks project......

Go to a DIY store and pick up some of the paint charts!

Stick 2 of the paint charts onto a piece of card.

Cut off the excess.

Ink up "Best Friend" with Black Archival and stamp onto the paint chart.
Trim to size.
Matt and layer onto Black Foundations Card.

Dry emboss a piece of white card using the Creative Expressions A4 Rambling Blossoms Folder.
Matt and layer onto black card.
Heat up a length of Silky Crush Black Ribbon and attach it to the embossed piece of card.
Heating the ribbon makes it shrivel and gives a totally different effect.

Place the stamped image onto the background with 3d foam pads.
Stamp the sentiment with Black Archival Ink onto white card.
Matt and layer onto black card.
Stick onto the card with 3d pads.

Heat another length of the ribbon and tie into a bow.  Glue into position.

Die cut Delicate Daisies Complete Petals from white card and Delicate Daisies Open Petals from black card.
Layer up and glue into position.

Add Dazzlers to the flower centres and the bow to finish.

And there's the finished card.  I hope you like it.

I really enjoy looking round for free things to use and these paint charts are fantastic...there are so many colour ways!

Well, that's it for now.  I'll be back next week with another way of using the silhouette stamps.

Many thanks for visiting and leaving comments.

Until next time, have a happy, crafty week!
