Sweet Stamps- Silhouettes

It's another fun challenge at Sweet Stamps .  Our challenge for this week is Silhouettes!
 A new technique from a new Technique Junkies newsletter- and it is amazing IRL!  It is called Mica Glaze embossing. I love this silhouette Dress and shoes pair from the ArtsyfArtsy line. I lightly colored over it with a Copic marker so the paper would not be stark white. I added a little Copic color to the flower on the neck and on the shoes for some interest.

HERE are the Sweet Stamps products I used on my card:

Black Dress and Shoes ATC set HERE
Embossing Folder Oval Frame HERE
Copic Blending Sets HERE 

Double Line Tape HERE

 I hope you will join in the challenge! Every entry qualifies you for a chance to win $20 of items from the store at Sweet Stamps, and if you use a Sweet Stamps image- you will receive an additional chance to win! The winner is chosen by Random.org- so everyone has a chance to win!

 We have a monthly challenge as well- Dryer Sheet Techniquem7/15-8/14-Dryer Sheet Technique - you have a chance to WIN !!! Stop by the Sweet Stamps Challenge Blog HERE to see what the rest of the DT has created for the Challenge.
