Feels Like Home for the Ink. Stamp. Share Blog Hop

Hello and welcome to the Ink. Stamp. Share Blog Hop where we are sharing something we have been working on. I have chosen to use the Feels Like Home stamp set, a free choice from the Sale-A-Bration brochure with a £45 order, and a bit of water colouring.

Colours used in this project are:

To recreate the feels like home card, you will need:

Blushing Bride card base – 8¼” by 5⅞” scored at 4⅛”
Basic Gray card – 5⅛” by 3⅝”
Fluid 100 Watercolor card – 5” by 3½”
Very Vanilla card – 5½” by 3¾”

Using the Stamparatus, I stamped the image in Basic Gray ink. I find I get a better image using the Stamparatus especially on this textured paper.

I like to use the lid of my inkpads as my palette, either by squeezing the pad to the lid or adding a drop of re-inker directly into the lid and adding water.

Using a Water Painter, I added a light wash of water to the tree, then added Old Olive ink and allowed it to spread. I moved on to paint the wall in the same way with Blushing Bride ink

The door was painted using Poppy Parade ink and the door surround and decking in Smoky Slate. The window in the door was coloured using Bumblebee ink.

The plant pots were painted with Misty Moonlight ink and the leaves and flowers added using Old Olive, Blushing Bride and Poppy Parade ink. The basket and seat of the bike were coloured with Soft Suede ink

I used my Soft Suede Stampin’ Write maker to define the door panels and the tree branches and used a Misty Moonlight Stampin’ Write Marker to draw in the bicycle.

I debated where to place a sentiment and finally decided to stamp it on the inside panel. The sentiment came from the Heartfelt Wishes stamp set, I love the fonts in this stamp set, gorgeous.

A pretty card, I hope you like it.

Please hop on to see what the lovely Tricia has to share with us today.
