Wildfire Silhouette

Hello Great Impressions Stamps Friends!
Gail here from Pop Paper Scissors.  I have recently retired and now spend my days supervising my husband of 41 years and our American Bulldog, Lulu.  It’s a pretty big job but I’m getting the hang of it. I've also been cleaning cupboards and closets like a mad woman. When I'm not making another trip to the Goodwill, I spend time with the craft I love, making cards. 

I am so pumped that Jenny has asked me to be a guest designer for the fabulous Great Impressions Stamps.  Wow!  It’s Christmas in July.

Great impressions Stamps has something for everyone from cute little mice to elegant flowers. For my card, I have chosen the beautiful Wildfire Silhouette.


The first thing I did was to print my computer generated sentiment.  Using my Stamp-a-ma-jug I stamped it once then again ever so softly for a shadow effect. I then added a little color with my Copics then topped it off with Stickles and a little sponging.  Using my new Spellbinders Floral Ovals, I cut it out and layered it on some pastel card stock.  The pretty butterfly die is from Cheery Lynn Designs.

I hope this beautiful stamp has inspired someone to create something wonderful.  

Yours truly,
Gail
