The first project is my dear sweet mother-in-law (NOT tongue in cheek--she really is sweet). She and my father-in-law really enjoy lighthouses. So I picked up this lighthouse stamp by Inkadinkadoo at Hobby Lobby (with a coupon-of course) in the interests of making items for my MIL.
Here is my first card--it is flat--very flat---
Can you believe it?? No Hardware! No Ribbon! No Flowers! No Dimensionals! Not even a Jewel!!
I used Prismacolor pencils to color the image and then stamped Linen Background over top of it. There is a touch of Stickles on the lighthouse's light.
Materials Used:
- Stamps: Lighthouse (Inkadinkadoo), Linen and Warmest Regards (SU!)
- Paper: White CS (Georgia Pacific), Basic Black, Not quite Navy, and Garden Green (SU!)
- Ink: StazOn Jet Black, Going Grey (SU!)
- Accessories: Prismacolor Pencils, LOMS (Low-Odor Mineral Spirits), Stickles
Stay tuned for more Lighthouse cards!!
