Belair Creative Cards - August 2020

Last weekend we made the two cards below. 

The first card we sponged ink and learned how to mask to create the sun. We stamped the small yacht from sailing home, lighthouse and sentiment  in night of navy

We then used the tasteful textures embossing folder to give texture to the sponged layer. 

My second card I CASED from Narelle Farrugia, a fellow Stampin Ip demonstrator. 

Sailing Home CASE

My card today is a CASE from the very talented Narelle Farrugia. I’ve admired her work for ages and love her work and style.  It has a unique flair that is just beautiful. You can see her card here. 

Base card is whisper white. Firstly stamp the lighthouse from sailing home in basic gray. Using a sponge dauber, ink up with versamark and then pool party around the top of the lighthouse. Then again use versamark and now ink up with seaside spray and sponge around the bottom half of the lighthouse. The versamark gives a softer look and blends easily. 

Now using water painter with just water blend the lighthouse using only the already stamped image. 

Stamp the happy from the family party stamp set on a thin strip of whisper white and trim. Cut Birthday from night of navy from well written dies. 

From the smooth sailing dies cut the ships wheel from night of navy, stamp the anchor in basic gray. Layer both on front of card. Stamp the seagulls using night of navy. 

My second card is very similar, but instead of using sailing home stamp set I have used the High Tide.
