Create a Scene

Inside:

HAPPY BIRTHDAY
Party Like a
Pirate

Supplies
Stamps - MFT (Party Like a Pirate, Big Birthday Sentiments)
Stencil - MFT (Mini Clouds)
Ink - Distress Ink (frayed burlap, antique linen, wild honey, faded jeans)
MFT (blue breeze)
Dies - MFT (Blueprints 23, Party Like a Pirate)
Colored Pencils - Prismacolor

Started this card by stenciling the clouds for the background. I cut two border pieces from blue cardstock and then  used the opposing pieces to create the waves which I then added distress inks to give dimension. The sand was tan paper that I also layered and added inks. The boy and parrot are mounted with foam tape to give them depth while the ship is tucked between the waves.

Atlantic Hearts #238

  My supply of sympathy cards is quite depleted so I thought I would use this week's challenge sketch to create something simple and yet soothing using a yellow and white color scheme. This card began with an embossed layer by M'press with a round frame in the middle, I then added a stamped greeting by MSE and surrounded it with varied yellow flowers by Prima. I put Ranger liquid pearls in the center of each flower. I decided on an additional thin layer of black behind the white embossing to help ground the black lettering in the center. Hope you'll play along with us as the Atlantic Hearts Sketch Challenge.  http://atlanticheartschallenge.blogspot.ca/
