I hope everyone’s summer is off to a great start as much as mine is! I love being a preschool teacher and I miss my
kiddos throughout the summer but it’s definitely nice to get the summer off and sleep in (once in a while).
I’m finally getting into the stash of the new Lawn Fawn stuff I’ve had sitting on my desk and thought it was the perfect time to
create a beach-inspired summer card with those adorable images.
I created the little beach scene with Lawn Fawn’s On the Beach stamp set and brought in a few of the older stamps and dies.
I began the card by stamping all of the images with Memento Tuxedo ink onto a piece of Neenah Solar White 80lb cardstock. I used Copic markers to color in all of the images and ScanNCut to cut them out.
Copic Markers
Bear: E79, E77, E74, E71, E41, E40
Towel: G03, G00, Y04, Y00
Umbrella: R17, R14, R11, Y17, Y15, Y13, Y11, G05, G03, G00, B04, B02, B00, V17, V15, V12, C7, C5, C3
Ball: B04, B02, B00, C1, C00
Mermaid: Skin: E00, E11, E13, R21
Hair: YR21, E15, E19
Tail: BG49, BG45, B53
The background elements for this card are all created by ink blending with Distress Oxide inks onto Bristol Smooth cardstock.
For the sky background, I blended Salty Ocean toward the top of the panel and then added Tumbled Glass to blend that out toward the bottom of the panel. After creating the other elements, I did go over the entire background with Chipped Sapphire to darken the
sky for some contrast against the waves.
Next, I ink blended the beach with Vintage Photo and Fossilized Amber toward the top. And then I worked on ink blending one
of the waves with Tumbled Glass and Salty Ocean. I used Mustard Seed and Wild Honey for the sun, Walnut stain for the palm
tree base and finally Mowed Lawn and Lucky Clover for the palm leaves before die cutting all of the elements.
To finish this card, I adhered all of the elements using liquid adhesive and stamped the sentiment using VersaFine Onyx Black Ink
and set it with clear embossing powder.
