Shining Light Rays

 Having a smaller canvas to work with can be easier when you are creating a card. This is a note card size. You can buy this size in white and vanilla. There are 20 scored cards with envelopes. All you do is add to the card front and write or stamp on the inside. Of course, you have to mail it too! I like to keep two or three packs handy. What do you think?




Stamps:
   High Tide

Paper:
   Whisper White 5 x 3-1/2 (Note Card), 4-3/4 x 3-1/4
   Night of Navy 4-7/8 x 3-3/8

Ink:
   Night of Navy
   Pacific Point
   Crumb Cake
   Soft Suede
   Daffodil Delight

Technique:
   Sponging
   Masking

Accessories:
   Adhesive

First, I stamped the sun and rays using a sponge and a straight edge.

Next, I stamped the beach on the bottom left using Crumb Cake.

I then decided to stamp my sentiment on the top right with Night of Navy. This way my water level would not go up too high. 

I then masked off my beach area using a sticky note. I then stamped my water using Pacific Point. It is a small stamp, so I did stamp over and over until I was happy with it. The idea was to keep the horizon as straight as I could.

Lastly, I stamped my gulls. I did not realize that the blue water was going to come through the Soft Suede. I don't think it is that noticeable. I think I may try using Basic Black, or stamping and masking them before stamping the water. Any suggestions?

  1. I think I want to be there at water's edge, where it's warm. Oh wait, you were asking what I think of your note-sized card, weren't you? Speaking of which, it is beautiful!!!
