Here is a lovely, masculine looking card featuring a lighthouse and made using the High Tide stamp set.
To recreate the Lighthouse card, you will need:
Sahara Sand card base – 8¼” by 5⅞” scored at 4⅛” – Rounded upper right corner
So Saffron – 4⅜” by ½”
Whisper White – 5” by 3¼” – Rounded upper right corner
Flowers For Every Season dsp- 4⅛” by 2½”
Whisper White – 5⅜” by 3⅝” – Rounded upper right corner
I began by adhering the dsp to the Sahara Sand card base using Multipurpose Liquid Adhesive.
The ‘ground’ image was stamped onto the smaller panel of Whisper White card with Sahara Sand ink. I added a little ‘water’ in Balmy Blue ink.
Using the Stamparatus I lined up the ‘outer’ lighthouse image and stamped it in Night of Navy ink. The ‘inner’ lighthouse image was then stamped overtop in Pacific Point ink using the Stamparatus. The Stamparatus is fantastic for lining up these tricky images.
The tufts of grass were added in Old Olive ink and the sun image from the Mountain Air stamp set was stamped in So Saffron ink.
I punched a 1” circle using a punch and placed it over the stamped sun to act as a mask. Using one of the fabulous new Blending Brushes – coming in the new January – June 2021 catalogue – I applied Balmy Blue ink to the background. The mask was then removed and the seagulls from the Sailing Home stamp set were stamped in Basic Gray ink. I also stamped some seagulls at the top of the card front.
The whole stamped panel was then embossed using my Stampin’ Cut & Emboss machine and the Tasteful Textiles Embossing Folder. Love the effect this gives. I added the strip of So Saffron card to the side of the embossed panel and added the whole piece to the card front on Dimensionals.
Love this card – plain and simple. I hope you like it.
