Hello everyone! This is a very simple, but striking, card. I love the background die; it looks so fancy but was so easy to use.
What I Used to Make my Card:
White Card Base
Orange, Black & White Card
Sue Wilson Frames & Tags, Zoe #CED4310
Female Winged Silhouette, Silhouette Cameo
Darice Bling on a Roll, Black Silver, #RH1024
Die-Versions Whispers Morocco Background, #DVW-346
Sentiment, Custom stamp by Stamp Couture
I adore black and white silhouettes; you know, the ones that people have done and hang on their walls as decoration. This is just a smaller version of that art form. I searched {and searched - I am amazed at the sheer number of designs in the Silhouette store!} for the design I wanted, chose female winged silhouette and cut the image with my Cameo machine; they have LOTS of silhouette forms, but for Halloween, this winged female was my favorite. I cut her out of black card and set her aside.
There are two parts to the Zoe frame, the plain background and the actual die cut. I the background out of black card, and layered the frame over it after cutting it out of white card. I positioned the silhouette in the center of the frame and gave her a little sparkle by using the Bling on a Roll as a necklace.
To add a bit of interest I decided I needed a background and I think this Morocco Background die is perfect. Yes, it takes a while to get all those little pieces out, but the end result is worth it. I chose to cut that design out of orange card just to add some color. I finally stamped the sentiment on some white card and trimmed it.
I love Halloween - it is truly my favorite holiday. While I no longer dress up and trick or treat, I do love seeing the neighborhood kids all decked out. I hope you celebrate Halloween where you are; and if not, who cares? Make some fun, spooky Halloween cards and crafts, you can always send them to me :) Thanks for stopping by ~ fondly, Christi
