Vintage-Style Sentiment with Up-to-Date Twist Becomes the Classic Gift

(Vancouver, WA – April 2007) – For today’s parents, preserving cherished moments in childhood is a must and just launched Simply Silhouettes gives customers a fresh way to capture and celebrate the personalities of their loved ones. Simply Silhouettes takes the old-fashioned craft of silhouette-making and gives it a modern twist though a unique digital process and updated design options.

“Our show-pieces offer a sense of nostalgia with a clear message. Honored here are family togetherness, each child valued for distinct individuality, and home as a place of artful simplicity,” says Simply Silhouettes co-founder Angela Flynn. Together with husband Patrick, the Flynn’s were inspired to start Simply Silhouettes because of a shared passion for family and art.

With an impressive background in art and marketing, the Flynn’s have hit upon an artery of universal family value, updating old-fashioned sentiment for today’s generation. One of the first companies to produce digitally mastered silhouette products; the new company espouses a delightfully unique attitude. They see and capture the “good life” in the simplicity of childhood, the originality of non-photographic family images, and the grace of making these affordable for other parents.

Simply Silhouettes offers the personal silhouettes on dozens of extraordinary gift items and accessories such as note cards, paperweights, tote bags, clothing, jewelry, pillows, coasters and even playing cards. Prints suitable for framing and galley wrapped canvases make one of a kind wall art. The products are custom created through a digital process using a digital or standard photograph of the subject.

Simply Silhouettes’ products are made on archival paper with the finest ink available. Because they are digitally mastered, the end result of each silhouette captures detail that is more accurate than traditional hand-drawn and cut silhouettes. Silhouettes have long been celebrated for their ability to reveal individual traits, and Simply Silhouettes offers a fresh way to capture the personality and special characteristics such as quirky stray cowlick hairs, or a puckered lip. The updated digital process used by Simply Silhouettes allows for a more accurate and artful likeness never before possible in silhouette making.
