This week’s card tells where my mind is going. Sandy beaches and deep blue water. Can everyone say V A C A T I O N.? It will be a while before I actually take
mine, but talking to my older sister last night she told me that she booked
herself on a fourteen day cruise through the Mediterranean as a fiftieth
birthday gift to herself. I was so
excited for her and since I was already working on this airbrush technique
following the instructions from Jennifer Dove, I decided to turn it into a card
to wish her a great vacation.
The background was created using copic markers, an airbrush
system, and a little of the Copic Opaque white.
I used Lawn Fawn’s Life is good stamp set and matching dies. The sentiment is stamped using Versafine
black and the hearts from the Happy Trails stamp set also from Lawn Fawn is
stamped WPlus9’s Sweet Gelato.
Supplies used:
Paper: Neenah Solar White for card base, Hammermill #100 for
picture panel and die cuts, Recollections Black for mat Record;
Stamps and Dies: Lawn Fawns Life is Good with matching dies and
Happy Trails for the heart, By Diezyne Stitched and Pierced Rectangles;
Inks: Memento Tuxedo Black, Versafine Black, WPlus9 Sweet
Gelato, Copic Opaque White, Lavender Atyou Spica pen;
Copics: B99, E55, R29, R39, R59, Y13, Y15, YG07, YG09;
Everything else: Airbrush

WOW! First, super jealous of the vacation that your sister is going on but THAT CARD is gorgeous!
ReplyDeleteI will never have the skills to do the gorgeous shading and stuff like this, so I really appreciate it when I see it! Looks fantastic!
