Hi, everyone! This week's Featured Stamper is Kandie aka Kemernow....congrats, Kandie!!! I fell in love with this beautiful silhouette card, with the turquoise background and simple layout. I followed the same general design and colors, but went very CAS with my card. I am an Elvis nut and love when I have the opportunity to use these fun stamps (from Crackerbox Palace) which I picked up at a stamp show a couple of years ago. Instead of coloring the full background, I used a star stencil around the edges of the image which was inked in Stazon Jet Black and stamped three times in a row for the shadow effect. This is a birthday card for one of my nephews who I was tickled to hear also loves Elvis!!!! Thanks so much for looking! Have a very blessed day!

Such a fun card for your nephew (and what a great Elvis stamp)! I really like the CAS quality and the faint blue ink effects. Thanks for playing in today's challenge!

This is so cool, Angie! When I was young, we were driving to Ohio & picked up a serviceman (Army) who needed a ride in TN. (You could do that in those days, lol). Anyway, he lived down the street from Elvis. Still remember that!

Ooh wow! This is awesome! I love the CAS design and the Elvis! My youngest son was born on Elvis's 80th birthday, so I plan to have an Elvis fan in my household
