Hello everyone! I hope you are all doing well! For today's project, I am sharing a card I made using the light house stamp from the Light of the World set (Set 6126) from Art Impressions. This one was a really fun one to color.
I used Copic markers for the coloring on my project. I started by coloring the lighthouse. I used the straight edge of a credit card to carefully draw the lines with light pencil to get the stripes onto my lighthouse. I have always loved red in lighthouses so I knew that would be a color I would go with. I blended 3 different reds and grey to create the colors on the stripes, leaving the middle more light in color to create a bit of a rounded effect.
Next, I colored the cliff, rocks and tree using may brown and grey colors, as well as a few different greens on the tree.
I then added my water in.... using back and forth strokes. At first, it looks a bit sloppy but as you keep adding your layers of colors, it blends quite nicely.
I then added the sky using a blender brush and some light blue ink onto the background. I wanted to make the cliff look more grounded instead of having it float there, so I also added a cliff from the WC Cliffs Set (#5465) and colored that in using the same color combos as before. I then stamped the sentiment. I hope you have a nice week! I will be working on fall projects!
