ALTERINDEX2024 week 10: Black, elegant, pocket
50 minutes ago
Saturday, 19 November 2011
Firstly, I must say a big THANK YOU to all the LIMettes for your lovely comments. Having looked at every entry for last week (I hope I didn’t miss any!) I have to say they definitely weren’t all justified. There were some amazing entries and I learned so much from browsing entries and blogs, so a big thank you from me, too.
In answer to a couple of questions, yes, it is an Inkadinkado stamp and the sun is sponged through a stencil, using DIs Barn Door, Wild Honey and Spiced Marmalade. The words are from Stampendous, one of their earlier Clearly Stamping sets.
Having browsed through other entries, I’m not sure this image will be accepted because it isn’t solid, so I’ll be rooting out my other silhouette stamps and making another, lol. Sorry, Chrissie and Mandi.
I’ll be perusing the entries whenever I get the chance this week and I’m sure I’ll learn a whole lot more from you all!
I really would recommend this challenge – it’s a fab way to make you think and plan before you stamp – something I seldom do.

'Think and plan before you stamp' a rare thing for me so I agree about LIM making you do so.
Love this stamp Cath, is it Inkadinkado? I have a similar Christmas set with angel and reindeer. Clever to silhouette against the evening sun.
Really love that card!

Beautiful, elegant and stylish, Cath. Love the colours and stamp.
This is a super card, but you're right, strictly speaking it isn't a silhouette, it's a black and white image, but it looks gorgeous!
Thanks so much
