All the pretty autumn colors are starting to show on the trees in my area. For last month's swap at our StampscapesII Group, I made this card that shows a splash of color. Click here for general tips on scenic stamping.
- I stamped the boats and dock first, and built everything else around them.
- Next I stamped 212G across the lake and then filled in on the sides.
- I used a torn paper towel to mask. I learned that trick (and many, many - many more from Sandy H!)
- After my ink dried completely, I started to add color with my Copics. I colored the water first, then the boats and dock. Added color to the trees and grass, using various colors of green to give depth. Added a splash of fall yellows and oranges to a few of the trees.
- After adhering the layers, I added glitter, Stickles and pearls to add splashes of color and a little bling on the ground (learned that trick from Trish H).
