For my project today, I made a card for a my friend who was knocked over by her dog and suffered a broken shoulder which required a shoulder replacement surgery. Ouch! I hope she likes it. The sentiment comes from High Tide which can be found in the annual catalog. The house is a FREE Sale-a-Bration stamp set called By the Sea which can only be earned with a purchase of $50 or more through the end of March 2019. I used our watercolor pencils to color in the scenery. The sunset background is sponged using sponge daubers and the following colors of ink: So Saffron, Mango Melody, Pumpkin Pie, Highland Heather, Pacific Point and Night of Navy. The water is sponged using Balmy Blue and the waves were stamped in Bermuda Bay and also come from the High Tide stamp set. This is attached to a larger piece of whisper white cardstock which has also been stamped with the same scene from By the Bay and then mounted on a card base of Mango Melody. My inspiration is from the Sale-a-Bration brochure and I added my own touches.
For the inside of the card, I used the birds from the same set to stamp along the bottom and sea shell to stamp over the sentiment which is taken from the Flourishing Phrases stamp set. I also added these elements to my envelope prior to mailing.
