Colorful Silhouettes in Blue LNS 133
Today's card uses the Colorful Silhouettes Technique from the August 2011 issue of the Technique Junkie Newsletter. I made this card for LNS challenge 133 (see below). Although it might look a little like it, this is NOT a resist technique :)
Note: The LNS challenge comes from an egroup called Stampin' Up LNS Stampers (Late Night Stampers). I think it is open to all Stampin' Up! stamp lovers...

One thing I did a little different for this card was to "double stamp" the French Filigree background (the white part). I love the stamp but I wanted a bolder look, so I inked the stamp, put it face-up on my work surface, smooshed the paper on top, then lifted the paper a little and moved it over ever-so-slightly before smooshing again to create a bolder look. It came out exactly as I wanted it!
After I made this, I realized that I did EXACTLY the same ribbon treatment on this as I did the Framed Nesties Card from yesterday...oops! I had actually created the pink card weeks ago...so it wasn't top of mind (or maybe it was!). Oh well, I still love the way this turned out!
