Card Art with Crafts and Me Stamps Silhouette For You Fairy

Crafts and Me Stamps carries a fabulous selection of amazing digital silhouette fairy stamps. They're beautiful images that can easily provide a wonderful card or project that's perfect for gift giving! What a fantastic way to share stamped sentiments or handwritten notes with magically enchanted cards.  Silhouette images are becoming more popular for their ease of use.

I've used For You Fairy to whip up a simple yet lovely Valentine's card that would be perfect for sharing a bit of love with a friend, family member, special neighbor or anyone that you care about.  You can get your own digital For You Fairy here.

You'll note that all of the digital silhouette images are made to print in black ink.  In eight simple steps, I changed my digital image to print in red.  You can find the steps I used at the end of this post.

This photo shows my red-filled silhouette image printed on The Paper Company White cardstock.

 

I've layered Bazzill cardstock with The Robin's Nest Daisy Stripe Red glitter paper, American Crafts Love Can't Help Falling and My Mind's Eye State of the Heart "Full of Love" patterned papers.  A strip of Satin Sensations Cranberry 5/8" ribbon provides a border and bow.  A few heart brads are lined in one corner.  A See D's What a Feeling set sentiment is stamped near my image.

 

This photo shows the front of my side open card, displaying Crafts and Me Stamps Silhouette For You Fairy digital image . . .

The inside is decorated to match the front.  I've added a stamped sentiment from a Stampin' Up! Have a Heart set.  A cute set of lips brad stands out as my only embellishment.
