Silhouettes

Hi all,

Happy Halloween to those that celebrate it!

My card today (made a change from Christmas cards) is for the challenge at   http://joannasheenchallenge.blogspot.co.uk/2012/10/silhouettes.html following the theme of "Silhouettes".



I used an image from http://karenswhimsy.com/public-domain-images/#, cut it out with nestability labels 8 largest die and chalked in pale grey around the edges whilst it was still in the die.  The black and white patterned background card is the remains of an old Kanban paper pack which I cut using the next smaller size labels die (just the very top edge and the bottom edge of the grey background).  I used Kimmi Luvs cuttlebug embossing folder for the heart texture.  The ribbon, charms and rose are all from my stash.  The diecut letters are from Crealies alphabet die.

I missed the Docrafts leapblog at the weekend, (but have a good excuse), we went to beautiful Bourton-on-the-Water in the Cotswolds, thought you might like to see a couple of shots of the scenery:



So lovely at this time of the year with the trees all changing colour.  We even had some sunshine, although it was bitterly cold.

Well, it is getting dusk here, wonder if we will get any trick or treaters this year, I have some sweeties ready!

Happy crafting!
