TGIF Challenges: TGIFC273 Color - Silhouette - Lovely You

July 16, 2020

Hello friends. TGIF Challenges is playing with Silhouettes. Did you know you can turn any stamp image into a silhouette by coloring in all the details black? This is how I handled the stamp images on this card from the Lovely You stamp set.

First I watercolored the background, next I stamped the images in black and then I colored in all the details with a black Stampin’ Write marker. Easy! Wanna try?

Blending Brush fail … but I made this card work in the end. The paper on the Specialty Embossed Cards has a little tooth and I could not get a smooth blend. Enter operation cover it all up. Haha. This card is all paper. The scrapbook kit is called Keeping Traditions SWK. Card created for #gdp526 #stampinup #cardmakingreels

This blue and purple winter card uses tidbits from the Calm & Bright kit. I used the negative shape from the fir die cut to create a stencil and layered from there. Blend, stencil, stamp. Colors are Highlander Heather, Cloud Cover, & Lost Lagoon. @global_design_project #gdp525 #stampinup #calmandbright

Masking and stamping! On this card I mask with tape, blend ink, then stamp, then stencil, and stamp again to create a layered scene. It’s so satisfying to remove the masking tape… always a fun reveal. Card created for @global_design_project Stamp set is ‘Keeping Traditions’ Stencil is made from the negative die cut fir shape from the ‘Calm & Bright’ kit. #stampinup #cardmakingreels #cardmaker
