Hello and welcome to the Hello Bluebird Stamps blog. This is Nicky with you today from the Design Team sharing a card created using the adorable Life Is But A Dream stamp set.
Here are the products used in the making of this card:-
I created 3 panels using the 3 largest sizes from the Nesting A7 die, 2 in white, one in blue. I applied the blue panel directly to the white panel and set it to one side.
With the smaller white panel I die cut an oval opening using the Nesting Oval Die.
I also die cut a slimline panel using the North Fork Slimline Scene Die and I utilised some of the die cuts created to use as the background land and trees which I ink blended. I took a white panel and ink blended the water using three shades of Distress Oxide Ink, then glued the land and trees in place and I kept holding the oval opening over the top to make sure everything was framed perfectly. Once I was happy I backed the oval frame panel with foam tape and applied it.
I stamped the images I’d be using from the Life Is But A Dream stamp set and coloured the images with the following Copic marker combinations:-
Canoe – G28, G19, G07, YG06
Bear – E44, E43, E42, E41
Hat – C3, C1, C00, R29, R08
Fox – E37, E15, E13
Blushes – R21, R20, R00, R000
A white gel pen created some highlights and then the image was die cut and applied to the background with dimensional foam tape.
To complete the scene I stamped the sentiment from the stamp set on to a strip of cardstock the same as the blue used in the main panels and also applied it with foam tape. Card complete!
I really appreciate you coming to read about this card today, I will be back again very soon with some new inspiration for you.
Nicky
