Sunrise silhouette

 I was inspired to make this card by a video I saw on Instagram of a card made using a stencilled sunburst behind a foliage silhouette. Different stamps, different stencil, but the impact is the same! 


I masked the lower part of the card, making sure the sentiment would fit, then stencilled the sunrise above it and stamped the silhouette (a very, very old Trish Bayley stamp) over it. Removed the mask,  ruled a line across the card to ground the image, then stamped the sentiment - a stamp from a useful set I recently won in the Allsorts challenge - beneath the line. By happy coincidence, the sentiment is the right width to make it look as if the plants are springing out of the top of it! 

I am sharing this with 

AAA Cards - no layers (not using the optional twist) 



Addicted to Stamps - die cuts and/or stencils
