Hi Everyone, my card today is on the current theme at We Love Stamping challenge, but has no stamping! It did originally have the sentiment stamped, but I made a mess, so printed it instead.
I started by using a stencil for the sea, using different blues, it was then die cut, and glued to the base card. Next, I got my dies out and cut them all in white card. I coloured them with marker pens, but left the seagulls white. These were then placed onto the die cut sea image. As I said earlier, I stamped the sentiment, but it came out wrong, so I went into Photoshop and made and printed the sentiment, then die cut it, and placed it over the original.
wave stencil - my own, cut on the Silhouette
cloud stencil - Funky Fossil
Distress Oxide inks - salty ocean, faded jeans, peacock feathers
markers - Spectrum Noir
square die - Sue Wilson Noble square dies
dies - Magazine freebies
sentiment die - Card Making Magic
sentiment - Oceans font - Baby Monkey. Wishing you font - Alef
The insert was designed in Photoshop, printed, then placed inside the main card.
All looks to have worked nicely in the end Faith, the boat and lighthouse make for a very peaceful scene.

ReplyDeleteYour card turned out wonderfully! The sea stencil with various blues creates a lovely background, and the white die-cuts colored with markers add a vibrant touch. The sentiment fix with Photoshop is seamless, making the card look perfect. Great job!
Another wonderful summer/coastal themed card, Faith! You are really knocking them out of the park.
ReplyDeleteFab seascapeFaith … brilliant wave stencil if you made it yourself, and the die cuts really add dimension to the scene. Great sentiment too that you ended up with.
