A new obsession

February 10, 2010 By Amy @ Positively Splendid

I have a confession to make.

I am addicted.
To silhouettes.
How can I resist when they are so incredibly charming?

Ever since my silhouette wall hanging project for my new sewing space (which is still a work in progress, although in the interim I have managed to put it to good use!), I have been like a madwoman coming up with new projects to use the cute little mugs of my kiddos. First wall plaques, which you can see here…

And then a Valentine’s Day table top vignette (the frame for which used to have a cherry finish before I doctored it up a bit with a few coats of black spray paint)…

And then notecards of silhouettes of all of the grandkids for my mom’s (belated) birthday. I was thrilled with how these turned out! I heat embossed the “grateful” stamp here, which always adds such a nice touch.

Our snow is melting, although we are possibly set for yet another round of winter weather tomorrow night into Friday. I have to say that now that we’ve seen a healthy dose of white stuff, I officially have my whistle whet for spring!
