More Waterfront

Hello, today I'm sharing more cards made with the Waterfront stamp set.  It can be found in the new Occasions catalog.  As mentioned in my last post, I have a hard time putting this set down. I just decided that it needed to get off of my desk, so I wouldn't be tempted to use it again. I have a stamp camp to get ready for, so it had to go into the cabinet so I don't see it.  How funny is that?

My first card is using Glossy card stock.  I wanted a simple natural design, so I chose Soft Suede for the mountains. The ground is stamped using Wild Wasabi (stamped off once), Island Indigo (stamped off twice) and filled with So Saffron.  There's a cute little "dotted" stamp in this set, which gives the appearance of little field flowers, so I used that in various colors to create a wildflower look.

 This one is a favorite of mine. I've always wanted to do a Northern Lights card, and this set is just perfect for it.  I used our Shimmer White card stock and started in the middle with Lemon Lime Twist. Night of Navy is sponged all the way around, and I applied it darker and heavier at the edges. The pinkish hue is actually Rich Razzleberry, sponged very lightly, then I went over it several times to get just the right color.  I used a torn post it note to mask the land and then sponged with Old Olive. The trees and mountains are done in Archival Basic Black.  A little touch of white gel pen adds stars in the night sky.

I hope you enjoyed my cards today. Please contact me if you would like a catalog, or if you're local here in Gilbert or Mesa or Chandler, Arizona, I would love to have you attend my monthly stamp camps.  Have a great day.
