Father's Day Card II

Today I introduced another Father's Day Card.  Unfortunately, my video had a technical glitch and I was not able to show you the entire creative process for this card.  I'm going to do my best to explain it all in this blog.

PAPER

• Base Card: 11" x 4-1/" Pretty Peacock, scored at 5-1/2"
• Inside and Outside Layers: (2) Basic White at 5-1/4" x 4"
• Inside Border:1/2" x 4" strip of Designer Series Paper

I started by using my Stampin' Seal and placed the inside layer, with the border on the bottom, inside the card.  

STAMPS AND INKS

• Oceanfront
• Beside Me
• Balmy Blue Classic Stampin' Pad
• Pool Party Classic Stampin' Pad
• Pecan Pie Classic Stampin' Pad
• Tuxedo Black Memento Ink

Taking the outside layer, I printed the image that I needed on the card and then stamped it again on a super sticky Post It Note.  I cut around the image on the sticky note and placed it directly over the stamped image on the card.

I then stamped over the image with my Oceanfront stamp set, to create sky, water, and land. Peeling off the sticky note the image was revealed and I took my watercolor pencils and colored in the image.  Using this masking technique made it look very real as if the father and son were really definitely there.  

I finished the picture by stamping my message and adding some Linen Twine and adhesive-back stones.  (Retired set of embellishments)

ADHESIVES

• Stampin' Seal 

TOOLS

• Bone Folder
• Paper Snips
• Watercolor Pencils
• Take Your Pick
• Paper Trimmer
