Coloring Down the Lines – Silhouettes

Happy Mid week Everyone!

Our weather has been gorgeous the past few days.  It is so nice to have some sun and nice temperatures.  I am hoping it will continue through the weekend since I am going away.  I am headed to Winchester, Virginia for a knitting retreat.  We are not far from an outside walking mall they have downtown so I am sure we will check out the shops.

Today is our Coloring Down the Lines blog hop.  This week our colors were chosen by me.  I wanted some bright colors for a change.

Stampin’ Up color matches

I decided to use a sketch challenge for this one as I really liked the sketch at Fab Friday   

I thought that the Summer Silhouettes set would be retired this year so I wanted to use it.  As it turns out the set is not being retired.  I stamped the leaf vine several times – I used the stamp-a-ma-jig to line up the second vine so it looks like one long vine.  Then I stamped the flowers and cut or punched them out.  I arranged them on my background then glued them down.  I cut a banner using the banner framelits and added it at the bottom then attached to my card base.  I added a strip of Rich Razzleberry background paper stack.  Then I tied my Island Indigo bakers twine in my button and attached to my card.  Here is my creation.

Thanks for visiting me today.  I am headed to the yarn store today to plan our trip with Mary.  Have a Wonderful Wednesday!
