HEY, GULLFRIEND! (2)

For this friendship card I used the Seaside Seagull stamp set from My Favorite Things.

I started by masking off the panel. I wanted to blend inside a circle, to create an ocean scene in there. I used two MFT stencils for this. First I used the Radiating Rays stencil and added Squeezed Lemonade and Fossilized Amber Distress Ink to the paper. For the waves, I used the Clouds stencil and took Salty Ocean Distress Ink to blend.

I stamped the clouds and one of the seagulls. I colored them with Copic Markers. Here are the colors I used:
Seagull: C0 - C2 - 0/ Y15 - Y38
Clouds: C0 - 0
Pole: E57 - E29

I fussy cut the images and assembled the card. I stamped the sentiment in Manatee Ink and added the panel onto a Sticky Note cardbase. I rounded off the bottom right corner.

I'm really happy with the look of this card.

HEY, GULLFRIEND! (1)

For this friendship card I used the Seaside Seagulls stamp set from My Favorite Things.

I started by die cutting six squares from a piece of white cardstock, using the Outside In Stitched Square Stackables from Lawn Fawn. For the background, the piece that is going to show through the six windows, I used a piece of watercolor cardstock and blended Distress Inks onto that paper. I used three colors: Candied Apple, Spiced Marmalade and Fossilized Amber.

I stamped all the seagull images and colored them with Copic Markers. They are really simple to color. Here are the colors I used:
Seagulls: W0 - W2
Beaks: Y38 - YR04
Pole: E57 - E29

I fussy cut the images and assembled the card. I stamped and heat embossed the sentiment onto Black Licorice cardstock, with White embossing powder from Ranger. I trimmed it to a thin strip and added it to the card. I adhered the panel onto a Sunflower cardbase.

I love those multiple window dies, so since I don't have on I created one myself. I really like how it turned out.
