I made this card for one of my team mates who makes amazing projects for friends and family just to let her know I appreciate all her hard work.
Colours used in this project are:
To recreate the amazing silhouette card, you will need:
Cherry Cobbler card base – 8¼” by 5⅞” scored at 4⅛” – rounded upper left corner
So Saffron card – 5⅛” by 3⅜” – rounded upper left corner
Basic White card – 5” by 3¼” – rounded upper left corner
Basic White card – 5½” by 3¾” – rounded upper left corner for the inside
Scrap So Saffron card
I inked up the large flower image from the Amazing Silhouettes stamp set using So Saffron ink.

Using Sponge Daubers I added Bumblebee ink, Calypso Coral ink and Cherry to Cobbler ink, huffed on it to re-moisten the ink and stamped the image in the centre of the smaller Basic White panel. I love the effect this gives; it looks similar to the effect you would get using the baby wipe technique.

Using Wink of Stella, I added some splatter with Clear Wink of Stella and set it aside to dry.

I wrapped a piece of the gorgeous Cherry Cobbler Shimmer Ribbon around the So Saffron panel, securing it on the back with Sellotape. The stamped panel was added with Multipurpose Liquid Adhesive and the whole panel was mounted on the Cherry Cobbler card base.

I inked up the sentiment, from the In Bloom stamp set using Versamark ink, I then stamped again with Cherry Cobbler ink and stamped it onto a scrap piece of So Saffron. I covered the stamping with Clear Embossing Powder and Heat Set it with my Heat Tool. I used my sharp Scissors to fussy cut out the image and added the sentiment to the card front with Dimensionals.

I hope you like it.
