used in true silhouetted fashion. This is how "Sweet Petites" were designed to be used - but of course there are no rules in scrapbooking so they are also used bunches of other ways.
But this, is where the designs start. Simply outlines, a silhouetted image. Check out Anne's and Cat's use of these great "Sweet Petites"...
Anne - "Ship" Sweet Petites card...
this little square card by Anne is all done in blues and yellows, the colors of the Navy team. Her stamped and color image of a football probably tells you the theme for this card.
On top of the football image she placed a blue "Ship" Sweet Petite, it's just perfect there! To the corner she tacked a hand cut pennant shape that she personalized with "Go Fight Win!" using the "My Micro" font. The larger font, used to die-cut "GO NAVY" is "Landmark".
If you know anyone in the Navy, imagine how they would love a card like this! The die-cut truly looks like a ship in the Navy's lineup.
Next up is a similar, keep-it-simple, idea from Cat...
Cat - "Bus" Sweet Petite...
Cat created a countryside scene using patterned papers and I LOVE it! Browns for the dirt and road, green for the hills, a pop of color for the vegetation and blue for the sky. What a fun look! Her sentiment is computer generated and die-cut using some nesting ovals, and then all she had to do was drop in the NEW "Bus" Sweet Petite for her focal point. Whoever is heading to Europe - safe travels!
Fabulous examples for using Sweet Petites in their most basic sense - as outline, silhouetted shapes. Thanks Anne and Cat for the great ideas!
