Island Inspired Card Tutorial
Today I am sharing my card for our weekly Designer Creative Challenge Theme: Floral and Fairytales at Craftin Desert Divas. I love the movie Moana, and these digital stamps reminded me of the characters in the movie. Let’s get started with the process.
First, I cut a piece of watercolour cardstock using the largest die from the Torn Paper Dies. Next, I used the Beach Scene Stencil and coloured the bark of the coconut tree using Tea Dye and Vintage Photo Distress Oxide Inks. For the leaves and the island, I used Mowed Lawn and Evergreen Bough Distress Oxide Inks.
After that, I masked the top part of the card and the island. Then I used Cracked Pistachio and Mermaid Lagoon Distress Oxide Inks to colour the sea.
Next, I used the Hill Scene 2 Stencil along with Wilted Violet Distress Oxide Ink to create the clouds. This is such a versatile stencil!
I printed the Island Hero, Ocean Adventure Boat and Chicken Pal Digital Stamps on a watercolour cardstock. Then I fussy cut and coloured them using my Zig Markers.
Next, I added details to the tree using gel pens. I cut a second outer frame from dark cardstock using the largest die from the Torn Paper Dies. Then I stuck it on an A2 top folding card base, followed by the background panel. The coloured digital images were the finishing touches added to the card.
Working with digital stamps can be fun! I hope you’ll print a few on your favourite watercolour paper soon and give it a try.
