Silhouettes and Buttons

Silhouette stamps are all the rage right now, and one of my favourites is from the set called "Upsy Daisy" which features a row of daisy stems at different heights and states of blossoming. The use of silhouettes as a focal point on an earth tone card just works so well, especially when you introduce other layers and textures to the card.

I've started with a Close to Cocoa card stock base and have layered Basic Black under a Creamy Caramel front that was cut with the Top Note die in the Big Shot die cutting machine. The top layer is raised to give the card some dimension, and once stamped with daisy silhouettes and a greeting was embellished with several buttons for a bit more texture.
