I created a double matted frame for both cards and attached them over the scenes with mounting tape.

I attached the leafy branches and flourisesh to the projects with glossy accents.

  3. Looks great!! I love using Silhouette stamps, especially with sky designs that I sponge behind them. This is another idea to go with the few that I have. Thanks

  4. Beautiful. I love silhouettes and you did a wonderful job with these.
    Framing them really makes them pop and adding the embellishment at the top is a great idea.

  7. Beautiful cards, as usual! How did you get the die cuts so shiny? Does the black licorice card stock come that way? Thanks!

  8. Hi Judith, I’m sorry that I failed to mention in my post that I had cut the dies using black cardstock and then applied versa and black embossing powder. I wanted the embellishments to match the embossed silhouettes. I also applied versa and embossed around the oval frame on the pink project.

  10. Silhouette cards to me are so nostalgic. Both cards have a very tender “feel” to them. I took my time soaking in all that they were about.

  12. Love how you embossed and accented the cards with the branches and flourishes. Really sets the card off – especially with the double matting. Thanks for sharing

  14. These are beautiful! They contain such innocence and joy. A real picture of the live’s of children. I don’t think I ever realized how wonderful a silhouette could be. Thanks for widening my outlook and TFS.
