Silhouette Card
This look of this elegant card depends on the papers that you use - so experiment with colours and textures to find the look that you want.
The silhoutte is created by layering three shaped pieces of paper on top of each other.
Materials Required
1. Black card measuring 21cm x 15 cm.
2. Three pieces of differently paper. I used cream, red and green. Textured and patterned papers work well.
3. Paper glue
4. Scissors
5. Light box (optional)
6. Punch wheel (optional)
7. Thin double-sided sticky tape (optional)

2. Copy each of the three images on the template onto a different coloured paper.
Make sure that your markings are on the BACK of the paper you are using. I used a light box (see picture) to copy the images onto my chosen paper. If you do not have a light box, you could use tracing paper, carbon paper, or, you could print out the template image three times, onto each of your different coloured papers (remembering to print it onto the BACK of your paper). |
