Silhouette Update!!!...

Ok, these are addictive and actually not very hard to make. I decided I didn't like the white background, but all the other card stock I had in the house only had 3 or 4 sheets of each color(nice taupes and ivories) and I didn't feel like heading 30 minutes to the store to get more paper. I finally found enough sheets of one color in my daughters room, it's an off white creamy color, not quite what I wanted, but much better than the white. Can you see the difference(look at the post below). I then recut all the silhouettes and added more detail to the hair and cut the bottoms differently. I like them much better now. What do you think? Better? (and my oldest is home, so I did his)





Oh, and I have no plans on doing hubby or myself, I absolutely can't stand my profile!! This is strictly a kid thing :)

Now I need to go clean up a million little paper cuttings(the only down side of this). But really, if you have put off making these, please give them a try, it only takes a little of your time and virtually no money.

  1. Dearest Tiff,

    They are absolutely darling. I especially love the glasses and "sprigs" of hair. You are so creative and inspiring!

  2. Oh, Tiff,
    They are so wonderful! I love all the little details that "make" your kids...glasses, hair cuts, toddlers! You have done such a great job on these! The change in backing makes all the difference!
    Blessings,

    When you decide to do something, there's no stopping you! I like the variation in size of the frames. I think it adds interest. I don't like everything the same.
    Happy Easter.
    Pug hugs :)

  4. Hi Tiff,
    I tried to respond to your post by email but it goes to "no reply comment". I live in Limestone, way up here in the great white north. How about you?

  5. Your silhouettes turned out great. I have a set of my kids that were done at Disneyland about 4 or 5 years ago. I wish I'd done them all while they were little, but it's still fun to see how much they've changed, just in those few years.
    Blessings,

  7. They look great! You should be proud of yourself. All those little cuts had to be very time consuming and I bet it tried your patience at times.

    Happy Easter Tiff,
    Hugs ~AMY~
