Instructions:

  1. Stamp the base layer for the water in Bermuda onto an A2 panel of Dove White cardstock. Then partially ink up the upper two-thirds of the stamp in Deep Ocean and stamp again.
  2. Stamp the top layer for the water in Deep Ocean and then partially ink up the upper quarter in Pitch Black.
  3. Mask the water with a piece of tape and then ink blended the sky in Stone Wash, Nautical and Pitch Black.
  4. Remove mask then stamp the clouds in Stone Wash. Then partially ink up the upper half of the clouds in Nautical and then stamp again.
  5. Splatter sky with watered-down Unicorn White ink to create stars.
  6. Stamp the water highlight in Unicorn White and then partially ink up the upper third in Lemon Drop.
  7. Die cut a moon out of Dove White cardstock and then ink blended the edges in Lemon Drop. Adhere the moon to my panel.
  8. Color along the edge of the water with a copic marker to create the sand. Then ink blend a gradation for the rest of the sand with Soft Olive ink.
  9. Trim the panel down to approximately 3 1/2” x 5 1/2”, then adhere it to the front of an A2 top-folding white card base.
  10. Stamp a sentiment in Embossing & Watermark Ink onto Pitch Black cardstock, then pour over white embossing powder and then heat set.
  11. Trim the sentiment down to a strip and then adhered it to the card front with foam adhesive.
