Take Time

I stamped this scene as it appears in the catalog, using my own variation on colors. I'd like to play with it more and combine other stamp sets. Thoughts? 






Stamps:
   Your Path Awaits

Paper:
   Azure Afternoon A-2, 1/4 x 5-1/4
   Basic Black 5-3/8 x 4-1/8
   Basic White 5-1/4 x 4 (2)

Ink:
   Crumb Cake
   Baked Brown Sugar
   Copper Clay
   Old Olive
   Gray Granite
   Azure Afternoon
   Soft Sky
   Tuxedo Black Memento

Technique:
   Scene Building

Accessories:
   Opaque Ovals
   Adhesive

First, I stamped the building, using Crumb Cake. I lined up the right side of the building with the right edge of the Basic White panel.

I then stamped the doors and windows, using Baked Brown Sugar. The stamp makes it very easy to align all of the images.

Next, I stamped the walkway with Copper Clay. I looked at the curved edge of the walkway to align it with the sidewalk of the building.

I then grabbed the Old Olive ink and stamped the grass. 

Next, I used Gray Granite to stamp the mountains. I did my best to align the edge of the mountains to the building. I probably should have moved it just a tad more to the right. 

I then grabbed the Baked Brown Sugar again and stamped the fountain on the grass.

Next, I used the Azure Afternoon to stamp the water in the fountain. I focused on aligning the top of the water to the center spike on the fountain. It will all fall into place.

I then used Soft Sky to add a few clouds. I stamped the clouds twice before re-inking the stamp.

Lastly, I stamped the sentiment, using Tuxedo Black Memento.

When I finished, I saw that the complete image was a bit more to the right than to the center of the panel. So, I cut a strip of Azure Afternoon to adhere to the left side and even it all. 

I then adhered the panel to a Basic Black matte, and then onto the Azure Afternoon card front.

Lastly, I added some Opaque Ovals and adhered a Basic White panel to the inside of the card.
