Sunday Fun Day: Pinterest CASE Positive Thoughts silhouette sympathy card

Hello and Happy Sunday! For this week's Sunday Fun Day theme over on the Sisters in Stamping blog we are sharing projects we CASE'd from Pinterest. I can't think of a more fun site that is FULL of inspiration! I love getting card ideas, recipes and more from Pinterest (check out my boards here).

I used the Positive Thoughts stamp set for this card along with Blending Brushes to add the ink for the background. The images and sentiments were stamped with Memento Tuxedo Black ink and I used Balmy Blue and Misty Moonlight (of course!) for the background. Please click on any of the photos above to hop over to my Stampin' Up! store to place an order. If ordering online, please be sure to use Host Code QNTFU7G6.

Sympathy Card by Jeannie at KampaKreations

The card that I CASE'd from Pinterest is this one above created by Jeannie at Kampa Kreations. I love her coloring and silhouette cards are so beautiful!

Here is another view of my card. The blues that I used are definitely different from the original, but I think I was able to achieve the same feeling. My moon was created using a sticky note that I cut into a circle using one of the Layering Circle dies. That way I could sponge around it without it moving. The blending brushes make it easy to add color, but if you try this technique be sure to use a light hand and after inking dab off excess ink on a piece of grid paper first so you don't end up with splotchy areas on the basic white card stock panel. Start with the Balmy Blue ink and keep adding a little at a time until you achieve the look you want. I left the center area below the moon without a lot of color so the silhouette images really pop. I added Misty Moonlight ink around the edges and especially in the corners until I achieved the look I wanted.

Here is the inside of the card, I stamped the sentiment and then the image from the front after stamping off once.

Here's one more look at my card. For even more Pinterest CASE'd card ideas and projects, don't forget to hop over to the Sisters in Stamping blog to see what Karla and Rachel created.

Thanks for visiting and have a fabulous week!
