11th Hour Gal

As usual I'm sending in my swap pieces "just in the time of nick" (old joke, sorry)
For Alpha Stamps June Swap "Black and White Silhouettes".  This months kit had some amazing black and white elements.  This is what I created with it:
 The woman on the outside is a transparency print.  I added
vellum between her and the opening.
And bound the two pieces with white and black ribbon.


  When the card is opened and has light shining through the vellum
it really gives a silhouette of the woman on the outside. 

 The second one has a trio of musicians on the outside
playing to the woman on the inside
 



 Again, the vellum provides a wonderful silhouette
 

 I bound this one together by gluing trim on the edges
then stitching them together with ribbon.
Finished the ends with beads, bows and a handmade tassel.
