TUTORIALWEDNESDAY WITH BUGABOO STAMPS : FAUX SILHOUETTE TECHNIQUE

I'd like to share with you just how easy it is to use your images into silhouettes and how cute the Bugaboo images work for this technique:

For my card I have merged three images :

AKV Ballerina 2 -- AKV Ballerina 1 -- AKV Ballerina 3

and merged the png versions so that their hands are touching, before printing them onto white cardstock. They were then coloured black using an alcohol marker. (This could also be done using  Photoshop, etc).

The image was trimmed so that the outermost lines of the image are on the cut edge of the white cardstock. It was matted onto black cs so it looks like this:

I then went on to complete my contemporary silhouette card:

Here is the finished card:  

Also use on my card are :

bows, sewn on sequins and beads, pearls, star gems

bling braid, organza ribbon trim, round punched sentiment, satin ribbon bow

Thanks for visiting today - I hope you enjoyed the tutorial, and if you try it for yourself, say you found it on the Bugaboo Stamps' Catch the Bug blog!
