I have to laugh, Kim's WT challenge this week is 'perfect silhouettes' ... I don't love this card, but I'm going out and don't have time for a re-do. So this is a NOT so perfect, perfect silhouette.
The balance is off, there's too much going on at the bottom of the card, and the silhouette is way too stark ... it just doesn't really work. But I posted it anyway, hey, it took time to make!!!!
I'm not even linking to my blog ... don't bother looking there, it still looks bad!!! Happy Thursday everyone

What a pretty card! I love the punched silouette, and the stark, clean lines of this! Don't be so hard on yourself; I think it's lovely and elegant looking!!

I think it's absolutely gorgeous! I'm going to copy it too!
