Barn Dance Challenge

 

Hello Ai fans!

It's week two of the Barn Dance Challenge on the Art Impressions blog.  Be sure to enter for the chance to win free stamps. There are two new Funny Farm sets. I used the Gullfriend stamp set for this beachy Birthday card..

I started by stamping the images onto Spectrum Noir Ultra Smooth card stock with Gina K Black Amalgam ink and colored them with Copic markers.  The colors I used will be listed at the end of this post.  I then cut the images out with the matching dies that come in the set. 

The background is on a piece of Tim Holtz watercolor paper.  I cut a hill into a full sheet of masking paper.  I placed the bottom part over the mask over where I wanted the hill.  I then cut straight across the top part of the mask to create a horizon line and placed it above the hill.  I then blended Mermaid Lagoon Distress Ink over the sky area.  Once it was dry, I placed the mask over the sky and removed the middle mask and blended on Mermaid Lagoon Distress Ink. Once that was dry, I place the horizon line mast back in place and removed the bottom mask.  I blended it with Tea Dye and Vintage Photo Distress ink.  I also splattered it with Vintage Photo Reinker.  I removed all of the masks and splattered the entire image with water and white paint.

Copic  Colors Used:

Gulls - C3, C1, C0

Feet - YR68, Y13, Y11

Blue - B04, B02, B00

Rose - R85, R83, R81
