Vintage silhouette.....


When I got the Heritage cart I really wanted to use the cameo-style silhouettes,there are about 6 on the cart but I decided to go with this one. I cut the silhouette frame from aqua glittercard and then the cameo itself from pink glittercard. I backed the oval frame with spotted glittered vellum, then adhered the pink cameo over the base silhouette with silicone. I added a pearl necklace made from adhesive pearls and a bow and rose speared with a pearl hatpin from here.
I mounted the completed frame onto a layered panel with punched edged and ribbon trim. I completed the card with large pearl adhesive hearts. The inside of the card(not shown) was designed for Mother's Day but it could be given to any female acquaintance.
Carts used:
Cameo frame & frame inside card (not shown)- Heritage
Happy Mother's Day (not shown)- Mother's Day Limited Edition 2010
Thanks for visiting!
