This week there have been some posts on Moxie Fab World about scherenshnitt (or papercutting) and it inspired me to give it go- I ended up with a card that would suit some of the trendy young men I know. I would have liked to do the background with the HA woodgrain stamp but I'm still waiting for the mailcarrier to bring it :(
The bird silhouttes I drew then cut out of the patterned paper with a craft knife. I put a contrasting strip of paper behind the window. I've left it blank inside so I can customise it to the occasion.

The photos that I uploaded earlier today were not very good (color was off). I uploaded a few more.

Another Keeping in Touch card..... This particular card is for a friend of mine, who somehow had the weirdest basic Grey paper.. it's from the Dissidant line, and is called Obscure. I say weird, only because my friend is in her 70s and that type of paper would never hit her shopping cart... where she got it from, I don't know. Anyways, my friend had no clue of what to do with the paper. I took one look at it and had something very similar to this card in my head right away. I tried to explain it to her, but she just gave me the paper. I promised her I'd have a card for her by next Tuesday (that's when our stamping group meets again).
What I did with this card is to cut a 1 3/4 x 12 inch strip from the Obscure paper. I also cut a 1 3/4 x 21 inch strip from a Magenta paper. I cut four pieces of the Obscure into 1 3/4 inch squares, and 5 of the Magenta paper into 1 3/4 inch squares. With the Magenta squares, I crumpled them, then used Fired Brick Distress Ink on the mountains of the paper. I then ironed them flat. For the base cardstock, I took a 6 x 12 inch piece of bright orange cardstock...... for those of you who know me, orange is NOT my favourite colour. I much prefer a pale peachy colour for my oranges. So what does a girl do when the orange is too bright to match the patterned paper? Distress it!! I went over the whole 6 x 6 front of the card with Old Paper, Dried Marigold, Worn Lipstick, and Fired Brick Distress inks. The Fried Brick was just around the edges. I spaced out the squares so that they would be evenly spaced, and placed them somewhat randomly. After taping the squares down, I then took a script stamp, inked it in Broken China Distress Ink, and stamped over the squares. I then took the last of the 1 3/4 inch strip of Obscure paper, and stamped two Hero Arts butterflies on it ( from Antique Engravings) in black Versafine ink. I also stamped and cut out the littlest butterfly from the Antiques Engravings set on the scrap of Magenta paper. I then Stickled the circles and bodies of the butterfly with Star Dust Stickles. While that was drying, I took the last of the Magenta paper, and stamped the sentiment (Hero Arts) on the Magenta paper. I tried to just leave it as it was on the card, but it got lost, so I made a slightly larger frame to put the sentiment on. I just used some text weight paper, as I didn't want cardstock to weigh the paper down. Once the butterflies were dry, I mounted them on the card, using foam tape. The smallest butterfly is on a brad, which is attaching the gold flower from Imaginiscence to the cardstock.
