This is my first sample for CC579. I am your hostess this week and I have chosen lost lagoon, hello honey and basic gray for my color palette. Dessert is something masculine.
I decided to go with a FatherÂ’s Day theme for both my samples this week. I make a lot of them so this is a nice start for me.
This beach themed card will go to my son who lives at the beach in San Francisco. I started by stenciling a sun in hello honey ink for my background. For my water, I used a stamp from PaperTrey Ink – the ombre builders set. It reminds me of waves. My MISTI came in handy for placement and repeat stamping. The sentiment is a set from Waltzingmouse “man of the hour” also stamped in lost lagoon.
Now for my die cut images. The lighthouse, sailboat and birds are dies from CottageCutz.
For my sand, I used the Lawn Fawn stitched hillside die and cut with whisper white cardstock. Sponged with crumb cake and soft suede ink and then for the sand granules I used a stamp from Just for Fun but just inked up the sand grains with crumb cake ink.
ThatÂ’s my first card for this week. Hope you can play along with us. Check out the other DT samples for more inspiration.
