The Grassy Grove stamp set by Stampin' Up! and some ink blending used to make a beautiful deer at sunset card

Deer at Sunset card

This deer at sunset card has been in my mind for a while and finally I have got around to making it. I have used the gorgeous Grassy Grove stamp set and some ink blending.

The colours in this card are:

 

To recreate the deer at sunset card, you will need:

Flirty Flamingo card base – 8¼” by 5⅞” – scored at 4⅛” – Rounded lower right corner
Basic Black card – 5⅜” by 3⅝” – Rounded lower right corner
Basic White card – 5¼” by 3½” – Rounded lower right corner
Flirty Flamingo card – 3” by ½”
Basic White card – 5½” by 3¾” – Rounded lower right corner – for the inside

 

Using the largest circle from the Stylish Shapes, I die cut a circle from a sheet of printer paper. This will act as a mask. The ‘mask’ was added over the 5¼” by 3½” piece of Basic White card. I used a little washi tape to hold the mask in place.

Using a Blending Brush, I swirled Lemon Lolly ink over the top three quarters of the negative circle. I added Daffodil Delight around the edge of the circle leaving the centre of the circle a lighter colour.

Flirty Flamingo ink was added to the bottom of the circle and the mask was then removed.

The sentiment from the Sending Smiles stamp set was originally stamped onto the stamped and inked panel below the meadow grass, but I really didn’t like it, so Plan B………. the sentiment was stamped again in Memento Tuxedo black ink onto a piece of Flirty Flamingo card. I die cut it using a die from the Sending Dies and added it, on Dimensionals, over the wrongly stamped sentiment……….much better.

The sentiment, from the Earthen Textures stamp set was stamped in Versamark ink onto the scrap of Pecan Pie card. I covered it with White Embossing Powder and heat set it with my Heat Tool before adding it to the card front.

Pelican on a Post Thank You Card

I have made a lovely pelican on a post thank you card using the Waves of Inspiration stamp set and the Nested Essentials dies.

Colours used in this card are:

 

To recreate the pelican on a post card, you will need:

Night of Navy card base – 8¼” by 5⅞” – scored at 4⅛”
Basic White card – 5½” by 3¾” x 2 – one for the inside
Stargazing dsp – 5⅜” by 3⅝”
Basic White card – 4¼” by 2½”
Scrap Basic White card

 

The panel of Stargazing designer series paper (dsp) was glued to one of the Basic White panels. A length of Tahitian Tide Metallic Ribbon was wrapped around the panel and secured on the back with Sellotape.

Using Pebbled Path ink, I stamped the pelican on a post onto the 4¼” by 2½” panel of Basic White card and die cut it out using the Nested Essentials dies. I coloured the pelicans bill in with a Pumpkin Pie Blends Pen. The die cut piece was mounted onto the card front on Dimensionals.
