Stampin’ Up! Independent Demonstrator Pootles – Single Layer Summer Silhouettes
I rarely do single layer stamping like this, but I wanted to pull out my blue inks and have a play.
Using some of my older stamps, ones I have owned for a year or so now but don’t use, has been a bit of a mission since the retiring list came out!
It’s so easy to get caught up in ‘new new new’ when a seasonal catalogue comes out that much beloved stuff tends to get pushed to one side.
But I’m really happy that I pulled out the Summer Silhouettes set to work with as I love how this came out.
I laid down the leaves first with Marina Mist. I wanted them to be the horizontal ‘line’ that everything else worked around.
The 3 larger flowers are stamped with Pacific Point, then I scattered a load of tiny ones in Night of Navy. I decided to add that same flower to the centre of the PP ones, and with a little scatter of Basics Pearls in their centres, and a trio in the bottom corner, I like this card.
I’ve left it blank as it is one of those ‘any occasion kind of cards’ and I don’t know yet who I’m giving it to!

Blue is my altime favourite colour. But I had never thought of using it in this ‘monochromatic’ way with the flower stamps of summer silhouettes.
Loveley!!!
I love blue, but always have a hard time making cards with it.
Thanks, Sam!
Such a pretty blue! Simple but lovely.
Such a pretty blue card and I love blue too ! Thanks !
That is a stunning card I love the colors and adding the smaller flower to the center of the larger one. It is perfect!
Beautiful card Sam. I love the addition of the pearls.
Thank you Sam, as always your right, we do forget about stamp sets as new one’s come out and this one was always a particular favourite 🙂
Just lovely and also reminded me about that set which I never seem to
do much with. Thanks.
You know I have had that set for nearly a year and have yet to ink it up!! I love all the blues together. Maybe I should actually use this set 🙂
Nice card Sam!!
