Lighthouse by Reneé Matarese- Chameleon & Perfect Paper Crafting Blog Hop

Hello Ai friends!  

Happy Father's Day!

Art Impressions is having a special hop this week with Chameleon pens & Perfect Paper Crafting!  What a fun combination!  From June 15th-21st we are having a mini blog hop each day between the three company blogs.



You should have arrived here from Perfect Paper Crafting.

I used Lighthouse - Background (Sku#T1475) to create my masculine card.


The sky, grass and water were all colored with THE CHAMELEON COOL TONES
5 PEN TONE SETS. I used some Copics to add some "highlights" and color the rest of the image.  It's so cool getting so many shades from one marker!



The layers for my card were cut with the Mini Perfect Layers tool and a Perfect Paper Crafting Cutting Mat.  I used both 1/16th and 1/8th inches to matte my card.  They were really easy to understand and the self healing mat is very durable and great quality!


Inside I used Happy Birthday (Sku#E597).


Chameleon pens used...BL3 Sky Blue, BG4 Aquamarine, BV4 Blue Violet

Copics used... C0, C3, Y02, YG11, G43, B0000, B01, B52, B60, W1 W3, E21, E37, E42, E53, E55, E84

TriArt markers... B-12, SK-5
