Assembly
instructions:
1. Cut an Azure
afternoon card base 8 ½ x 5 ½” scored at 4 ¼” and add Real Red 4” x 5 ¼”panel
to card front.
2. Emboss the
watercolor paper using the Sunrise Sailing Hybrid embossing folder. Also emboss
clouds with scraps of Basic White cardstock. Fussy cut around the clouds.
3. Using a
water brush or paintbush color the water with Azure Afternoon ink and sky with
Balmy Blue. You can push on closed ink pad to get ink on the lid or press an
acrylic block into ink pad. Add a couple of drops of water before adding to
cardstock. Sometimes I add a drop of Balmy Blue re-inker just because it is
such a light color. Set aside to fully dry.
4. Stamp
sailboat using Momento Black ink. Stamp the strips on the sails with Real Red
and the boat in Pecan Pie. Die cut using the coordinating dies.
5. Add a 4” x 5 ¼” white panel to inside of the card and stamp your preferred sentiment. If you want to step your card up a bit add Real Read 4"x 5 1/4" panel to inside of card and cut down your white panel to 3 3/4" x 5". Stamp some birds above the sentiment and on the envelope.
6. Once
watercolor paper is fully dry (you can speed up the drying time with a heat
gun) glue on the clouds and cut off edges overhanging. Stamp birds using
Momento Black ink. Add sailboat using Stampin’ Dimensionals.
