Well black and white anyway! The challenge on http://pinkleart.blogspot.com/search/label/The%20Sunday%20Stampers is to use black and white to create a card, ATC or any other creative work. I always love working in black and white and took this chance to use one of a set of two silhouette stamps I bought recently from a seller on ebay. Love ebay and especially love it when you get a great surprise extra with your purchase. I had actually bought 3 sets of clear stamps from this lady but she must have decided to have a really good clear out as she put two lady's head silhouette clear stamps in as an extra. Bliss - I love both of them.
I've no idea what company they are made by but they are both really useful stamps to have. The one I used for this card lends itself to adding feathers to the hat and after adding the feather I couldn't help myself I just had to add a bit of bling too.
The background paper is from Kanban. I got the idea for the layout when I was trying to decide what to do with the stamped image. I was playing around and noticed the diagonal pattern on the back of a square envelope that happened to be on my craft table. I liked the way the paper made a cross on the back and decided to have a go at recreating the shape with patterned papers on my card. I used papers with the same design but a positive and negative image and am quite pleased with how it turned out.

This card is also suitable for the challenge at http://themethursday.wordpress.com/ which is on a theme of hats this week. Watch this space because more hats are on their way.
