Hi there again! Here's another guest project I did for Nathalie Kalbach. You can see the original post here (link). This time I made a card. The rays in the “Groove Street” stamp made me think about a sun, so I combined that with one of the beautiful, detailed house stamps Nathalie has. This one is “Queen Anne”.
When I started, I was thinking of going with yellow tones and instead of black embossed the stamped house first with pale yellow. When I then started adding colors to it, I realized that it won’t work. The pale yellow looked odd with the stronger colors coming on top. So, I ended up using black anyway. I recorded a little video while working with the card so you can even see my two takes with the outline color.
After getting the elements done the card was easy to put together. I used white on white in the background where I added a strip of embossed white cardstock as kind of an anchor. On top I then added the warm sun and then the house. Like I write in the video, the house just couldn’t float on the card front, so I stamped some grass, too. For that I used the “Queen Anne”, too, stamping the lines multiple times on top of a strip of white cardstock. The intersecting mishmash creates an illusion of a texture stamp!
Thank you for stopping by today! Wishing you a sunny day!
