OTWC #38: Cameo



Happy Saturday! I saw this fabulous OTWC#43 challenge this morning and swooned! Aren't all those black and white images YUMM-OH?! I love the silhouette look! I've been dying to get my hands on some new silhouette stamps from Hero Arts and I see Jenni Bowlin has some coming out at CHA right now also! I hope Stampin' Up! adds some too!

I didn't think I could play in the challenge, though, then I remembered I had this cameo stamp! I think I only used it once before and didn't like the card I made with it, so it has been neglected. I stamped the girl in Versamark first and heat embossed with black embossing powder, then cut her out. Then I stamped the whole stamp in Black Memento ink on a white cardstock base, added the cut out cameo on top with dimensionals, and a little crown for good measure. I debated adding more layers, patterned paper, etc but ended up liking her simple.


Hope you are enjoying your weekend! Thanks so much for stopping by! Hugs and happy stamping!

Edited to add: Thanks to Amy for reminding me that cameos are also Cath's Moxie Fab Challenge right now!! If you make a cameo card, be sure and enter it in there too!
