I'm pretty much hooked on all the images from Bugaboo Stamps but I especially love their silhouettes! I thought this one would make a lovely Mother's Day card.
I colored with ProMarkers, then cut the image with a simple, square die from QuicKutz. I cut another square one die size larger, cutting shiny, metallic, purple CS to use as the frame for the image.
All the designer papers are from DCWV and all were scraps, including what I used for the background. I added one of my signature bows, this time made from sheer ribbon and 'dyed' with ProMarkers to get the exact shade of purple that I wanted.
I printed the sentiment, hand cut, matted, and hand cut it again, then added it to the lower corner of the card.

I started with the inspiration photo from Catch the Bug
and the sketch from Stella Says Sketch
which I adjusted to fit a square card.
