Craft a Scene Silhouettes

The challenge at Craft A Scene this month was Silhouettes, with the images provided by Carolines,who designs her own range of  Rubber Stamps, as well as the digital images she kindly gave us to work with. She has some beautiful images and backgrounds, and speaking as someone who has not worked with digi stamps before, they are really easy to manipulate and combine in whatever Photo/Image editing software you use. I chose to use them to make coasters- after combining backgrounds, frames and images, I printed them out, then simply laminated them to make them a little more durable. You could  cover them in adhesive film if you do not have a laminator, or Xyron do a laminating cartridge if you have a Xyron machine.
 Each coaster is made by choosing a background, then a frame, then I picked an inner background, finally adding various elemnts to create the picture. All the component parts are fully adjustable for size and scale- the only limit is your imagination!

 These are the type of images I worked with, you can see how you can combine them to create whatever scene you like.
