Silhouettes at Countryview Challenges

 Hello there! Its the first of the month already - and this month the challenge at Countryview Crafts is 'Silhouettes'. Apparently its my theme - love this one - so I am so glad that I came up with it! This is my first make for it!


As soon as I saw these silhouettes from a recent Tim release I knew I had to have them - big Mary Poppins fan so I guess these are just practically perfect for me!
To create the background I used my gel press and inked it up using my brayer with crackling campfire distress ink, I then used part of a rose stamp with more ink on it to add details to the plate before pulling the print. Very simple but I think it worked nicely!
I do hope you will be able to join us for this challenge. You can get more inspiration and link up here
Big hugs
