I couldn't figure out a title, because I didn't want to confuse you guys in the same manner I did Google. I'd really like to add some more silhouette stamps to my collection. And I don't mean those I could make with my Cameo! :lol:
You know, those where they stamp pretty much a solid image with little or no interior detail. I've been strolling the galleries and keep finding myself adding cards with that style image to my favorites. I've discovered Lavinia and could spend a bazzilion bucks there! However, I'd like some that aren't totally fantasy.
In the past my stamps have almost all come from Hobby Lobby or Amazon. Suggestions on sites to check out? Particularly those that might carry more silhouette type images? TIA
on pinterest; I have a board for silhoueete cards and the post what the stamp was that used. send me a message if you want to view my board for some ideas; or do a pinterest search of silhouette stamps

here is a thought, go squint at the stamps you own... if any of the profiles appeal to you. stamp it in black and fill in all the lines with black... and see if that will work?
i just bought a set of silhouette dog stamps from Paper Smooches; and I know Papertrey Ink has some Christmas/winter themed sets that include silhouettes.

Expanding on that idea, you could always use the backs of your photopolymer stamps to get a "silhouette" look. Just press the front of the stamp onto the block and ink the back. The outlines won't be nearly as detailed as true silhouette stamps, but it's a fun technique.
Sues' suggestion shows nice silhouette stamps; but states site isn't available now; as working on a new site. I will check back with them; loving the fishing boy silhouette stamp

Even though they're working on a new website, if you click on the catalog link in the blurb about the new site, you can still add things to your cart and check out and everything...
