I like the look of using silhouettes on art journaling pages. So, today I made some. I found some pictures on the internet that I could extract from the background, filled them with white, stroked them with black to outline and then printed them on some $store manilla folders. Then I used an exacto knife to cut them out. This did 2 things. One, I can use the cut out as a mask to add a sillhouette to my creations. Two, I now have a stencil to use on my creations.
Cutting the figures out was a pain, but I like the results! :D
Here is an art journal page I did using the bottom stencil shown above.
Thanks for dropping by!
Thank you for sharing this great idea. I am going to see if my KNK Maxx machine will cut some silhouettes out for me.
