Sihouette Card

The theme for stamp club is Silhouette. I stamped a silhouette fishing image with black Distress Ink onto blue textured paper that reminded me of water. Added two black strips of card stock and layered it onto a blue and green striped paper, stamped on sayings with black Distress ink.

Out to Impress Card

The theme for stamp club is "Out to Impress", interpretation up to us. I used a die to cut a bird shape out of blue fun foam. I softened the fun foam with heat from a heat gun and immediately pressed it into a flourish rubber stamp. Once the fun foam had cooled removed it from the rubber stamp and colored the surface with blue StazOn ink.


Added a small yellow rhinstone to the bird and adhered it to a flowery piece of background paper, then layered that onto yellow card stock and onto a light gray card. Stamped Warm Wishes onto the bottom of the card with the same blue StazOn ink.
