Seaside Bird

I have been playing with the Seaside Bay stamp set today, It is one of the new sets coming in the January to June Mini Catalogue.

 Colours used in this project are:

 

To recreate the seaside bird card, you will need:

Balmy Blue card base – 8¼” by 5⅞” scored and folded at 4⅛” – rounded upper left corner
Basic Gray card – 5⅛” by 3⅜ – rounded upper left corner
Basic White card – 5” by 3 ¼” – rounded upper left corner
Basic White card – ¾” strip
Basic White card – 5½” by 3¾” – rounded upper left corner

 

I stamped the sweet sandy shore image in Balmy Blue ink across the bottom of the Balmy Blue front and set it aside.

The same image was stamped across the bottom of the smaller Basic White panel in Basic Gray ink. I added the large bird using the same ink.

I used Blending Brushes to add So Saffron ink to the bottom of the panel and Balmy Blue to the top of the panel. The birds in flight from the Mountain Air stamp set were stamped in Basic Gray ink.

Petal Pink and Soft Sea Foam Blends were used to add colour to the seashells and Crumb Cake Blends were used to colour the bird. The decorated panel was glued to the Basic Gray layer and added to the card front on Dimensionals.

I stamped the sentiment in Basic Gray ink onto the strip of Basic White card, trimmed it down, inked the edges with Balmy Blue ink and added it to the card front.
