Hi Stampers!!
This card was created
for the Hand Stamped Sentiments HSSSC162 Sketch Challenge and I decided to use to combine two of my favorite new stamp sets, Wetlands along with Notable
Notions.
Again, if you have the time,
check out the Hand Stamped Sentiments site- their Design Team outdid
themselves!!
The Canadian Goose and I have a "history"- let me just say, do not try to feed a nesting pair of geese...the male is very protective :-) This stamp reminds me of this very humorous lesson I learned years ago :-)
To create this card:
Use a sticky note to
create the circular image for the “moon” and sponge Cool Cabana Classic Ink
onto Whisper White cardstock. Ink the
script stamp with Basic Gray Classic Ink and stamp over the sponged sky area.
Remove the mask and
stamp the Canadian Goose image using Basic Gray Classic Ink and use the
AquaPainter™ with Smoky Slate Classic Ink to watercolor the feathers and
Pistachio Pudding for the grass area.
Use the Color
Spritzer Tool with the Stampin’ Write Basic Gray marker to add a bit of distressing.
Adhere this focal
image onto Basic Black and then again onto Whisper White cardstock.
Stamp the sentiment
using Basic Gray Classic Ink onto Whisper White and adhere to the bottom of the
focal image. Mount the entire panel onto
Basic Gray cardstock.
Add the banners to
the side (I used scrap pieces of DSP of which a few were embossed) and the photo corners were created with
the retired Photo Corner Punch and hand cut to a smaller size.
Add the Basic Black
cardstock layer onto the Whisper White card base- stamp the script from Notable
Notions using the Illuminate ink pad, add the embossed Whisper White panel
along with the ½” Pool Party Seam Binding Ribbon.
Add the Pearls to the
photo corners to finish off the card.
