I created this card for a Way to Use it challenge. Kim challenged us to use Silhouette stamps. The layout is from a CPS sketch.
I stamped the birds from Unity’s Brave Girls on a 1 7/8″ x 4 3/8″ piece of Classic Cream Cardstock with Midnight Black Brilliance ink. The image was layered on a piece of Canyon Brown cardstock, that had been cut and embossed with Long Rectangle Scallop Nestabilities. The edges of the layer were paper pierced.
A 2″ x 4″ strip of Cosmo Cricket Early Bird Paper was stitched to a 4″ x 5 1/4″ piece of the same paper pack. May Arts Gingham ribbon was tied around the vertical strip before the layers were adhered to a 5 1/2″ x 4 1/4″ card base out of Canyon Brown cardstock.
A half circle of Early Bird paper was adhered under the lower right of the image layers before those were adhered to the card with dimensionals. Pewter Kaisercraft Pearls were adhered to the half circle.
The sentiment is also from the Brave Girl set. It was stamped on a piece of Cream cardstock, cut and embossed with one of the Labels Trio set from Spellbinders. A Pewter Kaisercraft pearl on each side of the label finish off the card.
Thanks so much for stopping by! Have a wonderful day.

great sentiment! as always gorgeous papers and a beautiful ribbon!
You always know just what to do with an image and this silhouette is no exception. I love that you used Brilliance ink to stamp it. Thanks for being a never-ending source of inspiration, Beate.
This is a simple yet elegant card. Love it.
Gorgeous card, Beate. I absolutely love that wide gingham ribbon. I like the birds on the branch too….imagining them all flying off at the same time.
Hi Beate, Love how you have used this stamp. Gorgeous papers and lovely layout.

Really like this card. Has a vintagey feel to it…very nice!
Hi there Beate!! Love this Silhouette look. You could NOT have picked better ribbon for this image…I just love it! And I have to say that your stitching is always perfect….DP’s are great also! I think I have probably, by now, given you a “big head.” So I end 🙂
This is gorgeous!!
Lovely, Beate. You chose the perfect background papers to showcase your silhouette stamp. The gingham bow compliments your design perfectly.
love the bird stamp I have it too…I think that bow really adds to the whole card. Super job
