Garden Silhouettes


Stamp sets: Garden Silhouettes, Canvas
Paper: Not Quite Navy, Always Artichoke, Ruby Red, Very Vanilla,
Ink: Not Quite Navy, Always Artichoke
Accessories: Artichoke Eyelets, Crop-a-dile, Coluzzle Cutting System (oval), stamping sponge

The vanilla paper is first overlayed with an oval template so that the image can be stamped inside the oval frame. The artichoke ink is sponged around the edge of the template to create the oval frame on the paper. The vanilla paper is then cut down to the size wanted and mounted with both a complimentary and a contrasting color. The background is stamped onto the card, the eyelets are added for embellishment, and then the entire main image is mounted onto the card. A simple and yet stylistic card.
