Toes in the Sand...

>> Monday, July 31, 2023

 

Oh how I wish I could dip my toes in the sand and water in this image.


For my card:

  • I stamped the first ADIRONDACK CHAIR - 450C as a mirror image using my own tutorial. My tutorial shows how I get a crisp clean stamp using some low tack tape which you can put the image on a tape hinge and stamp it again and again until you get the darkness the way you want it once the image is stamped.
  • Next, I stamped the ADIRONDACK CHAIR - 450C not as a mirror image. When I want to do a mirror image and a regular stamp of the same image I usually do the mirror image first.
  • Once both chairs were stamped I used the TOES IN THE SAND BIRTHDAY GREETING - 980F in between the chairs.
  • I then used copic markers to color in the scene.
  • Once the scene was colored I cut it down and popped it up on dimensionals.

I hope you give mirror image stamping a try. It is really easy once you have done it a few times.

Thank you for stopping by to check out my card this week.

Sorry for the deleted comment above!! I love this card - great sky and great mirrored chair. This would be perfect to send around here - everyone went to the beach this weekend since school starts in 1.5 weeks. Beautiful card, Lisa. Hugz

Incredible card Lisa! Great job on both the mirror image and the tutorial on it! Your coloring is fantastic - I can't believe your watercolor background is actually copic markers. Very impressive!
You've got me wishing I had another vacation so I could hit the beach!
