Waterfront Reflection Technique
 



























1. To create a mask for the sun, punch a circle out of a post-it-note using 3/4" circle punch.  Place the circle mask towards the center of a Whisper White card front. Lay a piece of scrap copy paper below the mask covering the bottom half of the card front.  Create the sky by adding Marina Mist, Island Indigo, Sweet Sugarplum, and Crushed Curry inks using a sponge.
2. Place stencil over the negative space left over from the masked sun, and sponge on Crushed Curry ink.
3. Stamp the mountains from the Waterfront stamp set using Tranquil Tide ink.  Stamp the horizon image below the mountains using Tranquil Tide ink.
4. To create the reflection, stamp the mountain image onto a piece of window sheet using Tranquil Tide ink. Turn the window sheet upside down and place it below the stamped landscape.  Using your fingertips, transfer the ink from the window sheet onto the card stock.
5.  Add the sun reflection in the water by sponging on Crushed Curry ink.
6. Add the water on both sides of the sun reflection by sponging on Island Indigo and Pool Party inks.
7. Stamp the trees using Archival Black ink.
8. Attach the card front to Basic Black mat.  Attach to So Saffron card base using Mini Dimensionals to pop it up.
9. Stamp greeting using Archival Black ink to complete.

Stamp Set: Waterfront, Flora & Flutter (December Paper Pumpkin Kit for the greeting)
Ink: Marina Mist, Island Indigo, Pool Party, Sweet Sugarplum, Crushed Curry, Tranquil Tide, Archival Black

Waterfront Tropical Beach




























1. To create a mask for the sun punch a circle using a 3/4" circle punch out of a post-it-note.  You'll be using the negative space for the mask.  Place the mask on watercolor paper card front.  Sponge Crushed Curry ink inside the circle to create the sun.
2. Stamp the mountains using Early Espresso ink.  Create a mask for the mountains by stamping the images on a post-it-note and cutting them out using a pair of scissors.  To create the sky, place the mountain masks over the stamped mountains, and the punched out circle over the sponged on sun.  Stamp the "water" and "landscape" images over the masks using Crushed Curry, Peekaboo Peach, and Calypso Coral inks.  Blend in the colors using an aqua painter.
3. To create the water, stamp the "water' and "landscape" images using Pool Party and Island Indigo inks.  Leave spaces between the images so some white shows through for waves and the beach.  Blend in the colors using an aqua painter.
4. To create the beach, stamp the "water" and "landscape" images on the bottom of the card front using Crumb Cake and Early Espresso inks.  Blend in the colors using an aqua painter.
5. Set the piece aside to dry completely.  Stamp the trunks of the palm trees using Early Espresso ink.  Stamp the palms using Tranquil Tide ink.  Because I wanted the palm tree images to stand out a little more, I heat embossed them using a heat tool and clear embossing powder.  Stamp the sprinkles on the beach using Early Espresso ink.  Lightly blend them in using an aqua painter.
6. Attach card front to Early Espresso mat using Mini Dimensionals to pop it up.  Stamp greeting onto Pool Party card base using Tranquil Tide ink.  Attach card front to card base to complete.

Supplies Used:
Stamp Sets: Waterfront, Flora & Flutter (December 2017 Paper Pumpkin kit)
Ink: Crushed Curry, Early Espresso, Peekaboo Peach, Calypso Coral, Pool Party, Island Indigo, Crumb Cake, Tranquil Tide
Paper: Pool Party, Early Espresso watercolor paper
Accessories: 3/4" circle punch, post-it-note, aqua painter, heat tool, clear embossing powder
Embossed Waterfront Moonlit Night






















1. Create a mask for the moon by punching out a circle from a post-it-note using a 3/4" circle punch.  You'll be using the negative space as your mask. Create a mask for the trees by stamping the image onto a post-it-note, then cutting out the image using a pair of scissors.
2. Swipe Embossing Buddy over the card front. Place the post-it-note with the circle punched out of it onto Basic Black card front.  Place the tree image mask onto the card front.  With a sponge, apply Versamark through the punched hole, then remove the mask.  Stamp the mountains from Waterfront over the masked trees using Versamark. Remove the tree mask and heat emboss circle and mountains using a heat tool and silver embossing powder.
3. Stamp the tree image in the empty space between the mountains using Versamark.  Heat emboss using a heat tool and silver embossing powder.
4. Stamp the land image repeatedly on the bottom of the card front using Versamark.  Heat emboss using a heat tool and silver embossing powder.  Place a piece of copy paper on the bottom half of the card front to create a mask.  Create grass by stamping the top parts of the "palm trees" image from the stamp set around the base of the trees and along the ground on the bottom of the card front using Versamark ink.  Heat emboss using a heat tool and silver embossing powder. Repeat to add more grass as needed.
5. Attach card front to glimmer paper mat using Mini Dimensionals to pop it up.  Attach to Basic Black card base.
6. Swipe Embossing Buddy along lower edge of card base.  Stamp greeting using Versamark and heat emboss using a heat tool and silver embossing powder to complete.
